Under Section 45(2), you must calculate Capital Gains using the Fair Market Value (FMV) at the time of conversion as the sale consideration, and use that same FMV as the cost for calculating Business Income upon the final sale. Using the book value instead of the FMV is not in accordance with the Act, and the difference is generally not an allowable deduction.
