Book Description
...explores the theory and practical application of the fundamental principles determining whether an expenditure may be currently deducted as an ordinary and necessary business expense or whether instead it must be capitalized and recovered through another tax accounting mechanism, such as depreciation. Other Tax Management Portfolios provide in-depth analysis of the Uniform Capitalization Rules of §263A. This Portfolio instead focuses upon the more traditional capitalization principles underlying §263(a), the decades of case law interpreting those principles, and the government's recent efforts to rationalize this area through the issuance of regulations.
