About the Course
Introduction
This webinar will analyze the requirements for qualified production property (QPP) for tax professionals and manufacturers to capitalize on the tax-savings opportunities provided by the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (OBBBA). Our panel of knowledgeable federal income tax experts will review the requirements for QPP and highlight common errors in identifying and expensing QPP.
Description
One of the primary benefits of the OBBBA is the permanent extension of 100% bonus depreciation. While TCJA assigned qualified improvement property a 15-year life, making it eligible for bonus depreciation under IRC Section 168(k), bonus depreciation was scheduled to be lowered to 20% in 2026. The OBBBA permanently increased bonus depreciation to 100%. The permanency of the full deduction allows owners of QPP to plan for future substantial tax savings.
The qualification requirements for QPP in the new IRC Section 168(n) include that the property be:
• Used by the taxpayer as an integral part of a QPP activity
• Placed in service in the United States or any possession of the United States
• Constructed after Jan. 19, 2025, and before Jan. 1, 2029
Perhaps as critical as knowing the qualifications of QPP is knowing what property does not qualify. Portions of the property used for administration and tenant allowances are excluded. Tax professionals working with real estate businesses need to thoroughly understand the eligibility requirements and benefits of this new expanded deduction.
Listen as our panel of tax advisors discusses the tax-saving opportunities available for QPP after OBBBA, eligibility requirements, and electing bonus depreciation for these properties.
