An entity franks a * distribution if:
(a) the entity is a * franking entity that satisfies the * residency requirement when the distribution is made; and
(b) the distribution is a * frankable distribution; and
(c) the entity allocates a * franking credit to the distribution.
Note 1: Division 205 deals with a corporate tax entity's franking account and sets out when credits, known as franking credits, and debits, known as franking debits, arise in that account.
Note 2: The mechanism by which an entity allocates a franking credit to a distribution (for example, whether it is done by resolution or some other means) is determined by the entity.
