8. Every person who has purchased or produced a movable property in order to sell it or for one of the purposes provided in paragraph y of section 17 shall, on the date when he begins to use it or consume it in Québec for another purpose or arranges for its use or consumption in Québec at his expense by another person, pay a tax to the Minister at the rate provided in section 6 on the value of the property.
For the purposes of the first paragraph, the value of a property means

(b)  in other cases, the market value of the property, including an amount equal to the tax that would be paid or payable by the person under Part IX of the Excise Tax Act in respect of the property if it was acquired by him on that date for consideration equal to the market value of the property, determined without reference to the input tax credit provided for in that Part in respect of that property.
However, the first paragraph does not apply in the case of a property produced in Québec if the property has not been used in Québec and has been taken or shipped out of Québec for use or consumption as part of the carrying on of the person’s undertaking.
