The IRS released its final version of the new Tangible Property Repair Regulations. This affects depreciation and write off of structural components of buildings.
- You can own the building or lease it.
- Small business now has the same accounting flexibility as the big boys. Equitable taxation for a change.
- There’s now an official threshold under which you can write off materials and supplies.
- Relief for small businesses. You can expense up the smaller amount of $10,000 or 2% of the building’s unadjusted basis.
- Writing off structural components of buildings when they’re removed creates more deductions now and can create permanent tax savings in the future.
- Administrative details are still forth coming.
“The new Tangible Property Repair Regulations are effective in 2014. That means strategic planning in 2013 could result in lower taxes in 2014.”
– Gary Bode, rental property CPA
