The Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 introduced a significant amount of change for income tax regulations. The changes include new rules applying to the treatment of fixed assets.

A new update for Sage Fixed Assets, version 2018.1, is due late January or early February 2018.

The program will be enhanced to include (via Sage KB) :

  • Bonus Depreciation (Section 168(k) Allowance): In general, for qualified property acquired after 9/27/2017 and placed in service by 12/31/2022, the 50% bonus rate is increased to 100%, and then phased-out over the following years.
  • Section 179 Expensing expands for business property placed in service in taxable years beginning on or after 1/1/2018 limit to $1,000,000

Recovery Period for Real Property Effective for property placed in service 1/1/2018 and later:

  • Eliminated the 15-year qualified leasehold, retail, and restaurant improvement property classes
  • Assigned a 15-year recovery period to qualified improvement property, assuming a technical correction is made.

Additional Rules:

  • Auto Limits increased for vehicles placed in service after 12/31/2017 – 2017 current year limits on depreciation for vehicles is $3,160, with an additional allowance of $8,000 for the 168 Allowance. The new limit will be $10,000 with no change on the 168 Allowance.
