The IRS Tangible Property Regulations determine how building costs are classified, and getting it right can unlock significant tax savings. This webinar covers when costs should be expensed vs. capitalized, the RABI framework, partial asset disposition, safe harbors, and how bonus depreciation, Section 179, and QIP interact with capitalization decisions. We’ll also show how to recover missed deductions from prior years using Form 3115, cost segregation, and 179D.
Walk away with practical tools to evaluate expenditures, maximize deductions, and stay compliant.
Learning Objectives:
- Understand the difference between deductible repairs and capital improvements
- Identify when safe harbors allow taxpayers to expense building costs
- Explain how bonus depreciation, Section 179, and QIP interact with repair regulations
- Identify opportunities to reclassify previously capitalized expenditures as deductible repairs through accounting method changes
- Identify situations where a partial asset disposition election may allow taxpayers to write off the remaining basis of replaced building components
