25             over the taxpayer's basis (for determining gain) for
26             such property on that  date  (determined  under  the
27             Internal Revenue Code as in effect on that date), or
28             (ii)  the  total  gain  realized  and reportable for

 2             reported  in  respect  of  the  property for federal
 3             income tax purposes for the  taxable  year,  as  the
 4             number  of  full calendar months in that part of the
 5             taxpayer's holding period for  the  property  ending
 6             July  31,  1969 bears to the number of full calendar
 7             months in the taxpayer's entire holding  period  for
 8             the property.
 9                  (C)  The   Department   shall   prescribe  such

18    taken into account  in  determining  gross  income,  adjusted
19    gross  income  or  taxable  income  for  federal  income  tax
20    purposes for the taxable year, or in the amount of such items
21    entering  into  the computation of base income and net income
22    under this Act for such taxable year, whether in  respect  of
23    property values as of August 1, 1969 or otherwise.
