What Is A Cost Segregation Study?
A formal engineering process acceptable to the IRSIdentifies building costs and land improvements - traditionally depreciated over 27.5 or 39 years Re-allocates a significant portion of these Section 1250 “building” costs to asset classes with shorter depreciable lives.

Tax Lives
R.P. 87-56 (approximately 135 asset classes)
Qualifying construction costs from the property should be depreciated over 3, 5, 7, and 15 years.
This results in:Accelerated depreciation deductionsA reduced tax liabilityAnd an increase in cash flow

Benefit: Accelerated Depreciation Deductions

Benefit: Accelerated Depreciation Deductions
The depreciation for a property with a Cost Segregation Study allows for significant increase in deductions within the first 5 years.
For every $100,000 of cost shifted from 39-year property to 5-year property, the present value tax benefit is approximately $22,000.*
For $100,000 of cost shifted from 39-year property to 15-year property, the present value tax benefit is approximately $12,000.*

and a Return on Investment factor of 8%. They are even higher if Bonus Depreciation or Section 179 applies.

History of Cost Segregation
Cost Segregation has been around since the 1960’s.
There have been over 200 court cases and IRS rulings supporting the benefits of Cost Segregation.
The initial cases were related to the Investment Tax Credit (ITC) and whether items related to a structure could qualify for the credit.
Whiteco Industries, Inc. (Billboards)
Scott Paper Co. (Electrical Distribution Systems)
Morrison, Inc. (Kitchen Electrical Panel Boards)
Illinois Cereal Mills (Electrical Distribution Systems)

www.costsegregation.bizKBKG, INC. COST SEGREGATION SPECIALISTS
Whiteco Factors Tax Court’s first attempt at creating a test
1975, the Tax Court based on analysis of judicial precedent, developed six questions designed to ascertain whether a particular asset qualifies as tangible personal property. These questions are referred to as “Whiteco Factors.”1. Can the property be moved and has it been moved?
2. Is the property designed or constructed to remain permanently in place?
3. Are there circumstances that show that the property may or will have to be moved?
4. Is the property readily moveable?
5. How much damage will the property sustain when it is removed?
6. How is the property affixed to land?

Hospital Corp of America v. Commissioner
In the landmark Hospital Corporation of America Case 109 TC 21 (1997) the courts further expanded the benefits of Cost Segregation.
The Court ruled that certain costs related to specific ordinary use equipment (that otherwise would be viewed as structural) qualified to be depreciated over the life of the underlying asset.
In 1999 the IRS issued a memorandum in which it acquiesced to the Tax Court Ruling.

Chief Counsel Guidance
IRS Chief Counsel issued guidance to the Service on May 28, 1999. Guidance stated the following:
The determination between tangible and structural property is a facts and circumstance assessment.The use of cost segregation studies must be specifically applied by the taxpayer.Allocations must be based on logical and objective measure.An accurate cost segregation study may not be based on non contemporaneous data, or assumptions that have no supporting records.Cost Segregation Studies will be “scrutinized by the field”
www.costsegregation.bizKBKG, INC. COST SEGREGATION SPECIALISTS
Recent Changes
In March 2002 the IRS issued Rev Proc. 2002-19 allowing automatic depreciation accounting changes created by a Cost Segregation Study for prior years to be expensed in one year, instead of spread over four years, as had previously been accepted. IRC Section 481 Adjustment reported on Form 3115.In January 2004 the IRS issued Rev Proc. 2004-11, which further simplified the process allowing tax payers to prepare a form 3115 even if an accounting method had not been established.An Accounting method is established when a taxpayer follows a particular method of reporting information for two consecutive years.

Detailed Cost Approach“It is the most methodical and accurate approach” IRS, CS ATG
“Inspect the facility to determine the nature of the project and its intended use”“Review "as-built" blueprints, specifications, contracts, bid documents, contractor payment requests, and other construction documentation”“Prepare quantity takeoffs”“Reconcile total costs obtained from quantitative take-offs to total actual costs”

When Should a Study be Done?The optimal time to perform a study is the year the property is placed in service
However, current IRS procedures allow a taxpayer to recover any missed depreciation on properties placed in service as far back as 1987 without having to amend prior years tax returns.

Example 1 Office BuildingCurrent Year Acquisition
Review the following example: a taxpayer purchased a $5 million office building without Furniture, Fixtures, & Equipment.Without a Cost Segregation Study the costs are depreciated over 39 years.In this illustration with a Cost Segregation Study, the specialist finds:
*These benefits assume a combined tax rate of 41% and a Return on Investment factor of 8%. Benefits are even higher if building is eligible for Bonus Depreciation and/or Section 179.
Of $5 Million:
$750,000 depreciated over 5-7 years
$500,000 depreciated over 15 years
$3,700,000 depreciated over 39 years
Increased Depreciation Deductions in the first 5 years: $750,000
Projected Benefits: $235,000
$5 Million Depreciated over
actual life of assets
With a Cost Segregation Study
www.costsegregation.bizKBKG, INC. COST SEGREGATION SPECIALISTS
Example 2 Look-back Study for a Leasehold Build-Out: Retail
In this second example we consider a property that was placed inservice five years ago. Without a Cost Segregation Study this $1 million retail buildout was being depreciated over 39 years. With a Cost Segregation Study the specialist finds:
*These benefits assume a combined tax rate of 41% and a Return on Investment factor of 8%. Benefits are even higher if building is eligible for Section 179.
Of $1 Million
$450,000 depreciated over 5 years
Remaining costs continue to be depreciated over 39 years
Increased Depreciation Deductions in the first year: $386,000
Projected Benefits: $104,000
$1 Million Depreciated over
actual life of assets

Does the property serve no more than an incidental relationship to the operation or maintenance of the building?
Relation to Machinery and EquipmentIs the property inextricably linked to specific equipment or is it reasonably adaptable to more general uses?

Property acquired by husband and wife 5 years ago for $1M
Cost Segregation Study is performed and $200K of 5 year assets are segregated
3115 is filed and current year return includes a $200K 481 adjustment.

IRS Audit Issues
IRS will conduct the following steps if examining a Cost Segregation Study
Interview the preparerInspect the property Review a Copy of Study & ReportVerify cost basis and reconcile depreciation recordsReview and verify classes of propertyConduct a risk analysis to evaluate audit potential
29
www.costsegregation.bizKBKG, INC. COST SEGREGATION SPECIALISTS
Interview The Preparer
Were the properties inspected at the time of the study?Were photographs relied upon when classifying property?What cost estimating guides were used?What documentation was used to establish the cost basis and use of a property item?How was the cost of each property item identified?Where are the workpapers?
www.costsegregation.bizKBKG, INC. COST SEGREGATION SPECIALISTS
Inspecting The PropertyAuditor will tour site and inspect questionable items.Auditor will request preparer to attend tour to explain physical attributes of specific assets how they were classified.Discuss methodology that was used to determine cost of assets. Were standard cost guides used to estimate costs?Auditor will ask on-site maintenance and facility operations personnel about local construction and repair costs in order to verify the estimated costs in a study.

Do they employ CPAs?Do they employ engineers as preferred by the IRS (not appraisers)?Do they understand tax related Abandonment issuesAre they knowledgeable on issues involved with a 1031 exchange and how it interacts with Cost Segregation?Do they have the expertise to file, or help you with, the IRS Form 3115 procedures?Do they understand how cost segregation can affect estate taxes, passive loss situations, IRS Section 179 deductions, NOL situations, Code Section 168(k), Section 754 Step Ups, and other tax situations? Does the cost of the study include time for audit support?
