100% Bonus Depreciation

The current federal rule and why it no longer phases down

For 2026, this page uses a federal bonus-depreciation rate of 100% for qualifying property acquired after January 19, 2025 and placed in service under the applicable rules.

The One Big Beautiful Bill Act, signed July 4, 2025, made the 100% allowance permanent. Unlike the prior law that stepped the rate down each year, there is no scheduled phase-out for qualified property acquired and placed in service after January 19, 2025. Property tied to a binding written contract dated on or before that date generally stays on the old phase-down schedule.

The percentage alone does not determine the deduction. Property type, acquisition date, binding-contract history, placed-in-service date, business use, elections, basis, and loss limitations all require review.

Which Property Is Eligible?

Qualified film, television, live theatrical, and sound-recording productionsPotentially eligibleSpecial definitions and dates apply
Certain used propertyPotentially eligibleAcquisition and prior-use tests apply
LandNot eligibleLand is not depreciable
Building structure with a longer recovery periodNot directly eligibleCost segregation may identify shorter-lived components

New Property

New qualifying property may be eligible when the acquisition, placed-in-service, business-use, and statutory requirements are satisfied.

Used Property

Certain used property may qualify, but prior ownership, prior use, related-party, and acquisition rules must be checked. “New to you” is a useful shorthand, not the complete test.

Placed-in-Service Decision Tree

  1. STEP 1

    Was the property acquired under the current-law date rules?

    Review purchase date and any binding written contract.

  2. STEP 2

    Is the property complete, ready, and available for its business use?

    Payment or delivery alone may not establish placed-in-service status.

  3. STEP 3

    Is the property in an eligible class?

    Confirm recovery period, exclusions, and special definitions.

  4. STEP 4

    Do elections or limitations change the result?

    Review election-out treatment, business use, basis, and loss limitations.

Timing a year-end purchase? The placed-in-service date, not the payment date, controls the deduction year. Check the 2026 tax deadlines calendar before you commit.

Vehicle Limitations

Vehicle deductions depend on vehicle classification, business-use percentage, listed-property substantiation, luxury-auto limits, acquisition and placed-in-service dates, and recapture exposure if business use later drops. GVWR alone does not establish a full deduction.

Heavy Vehicles Over 6,000 Pounds

Trucks, vans, and SUVs with a gross vehicle weight rating above 6,000 pounds generally sit outside the luxury-auto dollar caps, so the business-use portion may be eligible for full bonus depreciation rather than a capped annual amount. Business-use, substantiation, and recapture rules still apply.

See the vehicles over 6,000 pounds guide

Cost Segregation Example

Hypothetical building allocation

Assume an engineering study identifies $200,000 of otherwise eligible shorter-lived components. At the configured 100% rate, the potential first-year bonus amount on those components is $200,000 before other limitations.

What the example does not prove

It does not establish the allocation, eligibility, placed-in-service date, current deductibility, state treatment, or after-tax value for a real property.

For a short-term rental, bonus depreciation may help create a loss, but the short-term rental tax loophole classification and material-participation tests determine whether that loss is nonpassive under Section 469.

Read the cost segregation guide

A study on your building type usually starts the numbers conversation: see the cost segregation guides by property type.

State Conformity and Depreciation Recapture

State-Conformity Warning

States may decouple from the federal allowance, require an addback, or permit a different recovery schedule. Model each filing state separately.

Recapture and Future Sale

Accelerated depreciation reduces adjusted basis and can change the character and timing of gain on disposition. Model the exit before treating the current deduction as permanent savings.

Federal eligibility does not answer the state return. Compare individual and corporate treatment separately, including addbacks, recovery schedules, and current state guidance.

Corporate treatment

No broad income tax

Ohio does not impose a broad C-corporation net-income tax; the Commercial Activity Tax is not based on net income.

Conformity notes and primary sources

Conformity: Individual modification for §168(k); §168(n) generally flows through; no broad C-corporation net-income tax

IRC provision: IRC §168(k) and §168(n)

The individual/PTE §168(k) modification has statutory exceptions, so the five-sixths addition is not universal. Official fiscal analysis treats §168(n) as affecting Ohio personal income tax.
