2. Setting the Context for Engineered Taxes
2
• Cost Segregation is an engineering discipline that:
• Compliments the area of accounting
• Is required by law to be done by:
• Qualified Engineers
• Construction Experts
• Trained Consultants
Most CPA’s/CFO’s have heard of cost segregation but by
IRS rules should not be doing CS. They are not experts in
the engineering side and may not keep up with current
tax law.

life, now classified as personal
property or land
improvements with a 5, 7, or
15-year rate of depreciation,
using accelerated
depreciation methods.

1. Cost of building purchase or cost of construction (does that amount
include the land value or not, if you have it)
2. Was this a purchase or ground up new construction
3. What date was the building placed in service/month/year or just year
4. What is the building used for

Research & Development (R&D)

21. Prior to 2016 – the R&D Tax Credit could not be taken against
AMT. That’s all changed now. That means if you run a company
and AMT has traditionally kept you from further reducing your tax
liability, 2016 is your year.
The PATH Act changes allows for pre-revenue “start-up” firms to
offset their FICA tax liability with this R&D tax credit.
