167. Where, by virtue of the disposition of a debt obligation other than an income bond, an income debenture, a development bond or a small business bond, the transferee has become entitled to an amount of interest that accrued thereon for a period ending at the time of the disposition and that is not payable until after that time, such amount shall be included as interest in computing the transferor’s income for his taxation year in which the disposition occurred, except to the extent that it was otherwise included in computing his income for the year or a preceding taxation year.
In that case, the transferee may, in computing his income for a taxation year, deduct the amount of any interest accrued at the time of the disposition to the extent that the amount was included as interest in computing his income for the year.
