Abstract
This Note highlights the tension between Section 547 and Section 553 of the Bankruptcy Code, with specific attention paid to the interaction between set-off rights and the hypothetical liquidation invoked by a court in a voidable preference action, and proposes adopting the Ninth Circuit’s reasoning as a bankruptcy court standard when confronted with a similar conflict between the formalized tests in Sections 547 and 553, in an attempt to achieve a more equitable outcome.
