Compulsory-acquisition compensation attributable to development rights transferred under a pre-existing development agreement is discussed as not accruing to the land-holding company where the developer held exclusive commercial rights, funded the acquisition, and bore development risks.

Consistent treatment is also identified as relevant where materially identical development arrangements have received different tax treatment.
