Derivation of income

  (1)   Income is taken to be derived by a bankrupt for the purposes of this Division   even though it is not actually received by the bankrupt because:

  (b)   it is reinvested, accumulated or capitalised; or

  (c)   it is dealt with on behalf of the bankrupt or as the bankrupt directs.

  (2)   A reference in this Division   to the income that a bankrupt is likely to derive during a contribution assessment period includes a reference to income that the bankrupt has derived during that period.

  (3)   A reference in this Division   to income derived by a bankrupt during a contribution assessment period includes a reference to income so derived in respect of work done or services performed by the bankrupt before that period or work to be done or services to be performed by the bankrupt after that period.
