Depreciation Rules for Bonus and Section 179 Expensing
-
Metairie
2.00 Credits
See more dates
The Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 (TCJA) has had a tremendous impact on commercial real estate, including liberalizing the depreciation provisions. Bonus depreciation was expanded and increased from 50 to 100 percent for qualifying assets placed in service beginning after September 27, 2017, through December 31, 2022. After December 31, 2022, the deduction percentage began decreasing by 20 percent per year, fully phasing out after 2026. Bonus depreciation is now available on new and used assets. President Trump favors a permanent extension of the 2017 tax provisions, and we anticipate legislative changes in 2025 that may make the changes in depreciation permanent or extend them beyond 2025. We will be watching legislative developments closely in 2025 to determine how 2025 legislative changes impact the tax depreciation rules.

On the financial accounting front, we will cover the FASB's Post-Implementation Review (PIR) report for revenue recognition under ASC 606 and discuss the best practices in applying the standard and identifying any ongoing issues practitioners are experiencing with applying the standard. We will also discuss the more than a dozen ASUs the FASB has issued since the beginning of 2023 and into 2025 covering crypto assets, disaggregated expenses, business combinations, and leases for entities under common control. Our focus on AICPA standards includes a detailed discussion of revamped AICPA quality management standards.
