Under prior depreciation law, taxpayers were allowed to take what is called “50% bonus depreciation” for NEW qualified property that was placed in service during the year.

Under the new depreciation law, the bonus depreciation has increased from a 50% deduction to a 100% deduction for 2018. This was also retroactively placed in service for property acquired after September 27, 2017. And, there is no longer a requirement that the qualified property must be new. It can be USED property but just simply needs to be NEW to the taxpayer to receive the 100% bonus depreciation deduction.

Section 179 depreciation - The Section 179 deduction has increased from $500,000 in 2017 to $1 million in 2018. Sec 179 of the IRS tax code allows businesses to deduct the full purchase price of qualifying equipment during the year. The phase-out threshold for this deduction has increased from $2 million to $2.5 million in 2018.
