This article argues that while two U.S. courts reached the desirable policy result in the Whirlpool case, their conclusion that the foreign base company sales income branch rule of subpart F of the Code applies not only to sales branches but also to manufacturing branches is inconsistent with the statutory text.

Keywords: Subpart F, foreign base company sales income, FBCSI, branch rule, sales branch, manufacturing branch
