2.307 -Accelerated Depreciation on Buildings (other than Rental Housing)

Item	Description	FY2008	FY2009	FY2010
2.307	Accelerated Depreciation on Buildings (other than Rental Housing) Construction may be depreciated under methods which produce faster depreciation than economic depreciation. The precise rules have been changed repeatedly in recent years by revisions of the federal tax code. For structures (other than housing) placed in service after 1986, federal law requires straight-line depreciation over a 31.5 year life. The excess of accelerated depreciation over economic depreciation is a tax expenditure. For a more detailed description of accelerated depreciation, see item 2.301 above.
