During this course we will review the fundamentals of federal income tax depreciation. We will look at depreciation strategies, how to correct depreciation using Form 3115, accounting for deprecation recapture, and depreciation in a §1031 exchange. Treatment of the differences between tangible and intangible assets will be discussed.
At the completion of this course the Tax Professional will be able to:
- Identity the depreciation methods under MACRS, straight-line, declining balance, and units of production.
- Identify the type of assets, whether tangible or intangible, and the appropriate depreciation schedule based on the statutory life of a specified asset.
- Determine how to choose the proper method of deprecation based on the type of asset and the taxpayer’s desired tax position.
- Determine the useful life of an asset as determined by Statute.
- Consider the salvage value in deprecation calculations.
- Calculate the adjusted basis of an asset at the end of the tax year and the impact of the realized gain or realized loss when the asset is disposed.
