Section 108(b)(5) provides that a taxpayer having cancellation of indebtedness income resulting from tax attribute reduction under Section 108(b)(1) may elect under Section 1017, to reduce the depreciable basis of its assets before reducing other tax attributes.

For example, if you owed $1,000 and settled the debt for $400, then $600 was cancelled. The collection agency should send a 1099-C form that lists the cancellation amount.
