BOOK RELEASE! Real Estate Cost Segregation: A Practitioner’s Guide

Thomson I RIA: Published by Thomson | RIA, the premier provider of advanced research, practice materials, and compliance tools for tax, accounting and corporate finance professionals.

Authored by Grant Keppel, CPA, Freed Maxick’s nationally renown cost segregation practitioner and Director of Cost Segregation Partners. His book, Real Estate Cost Segregation: A Practitioner’s Guide puts cost segregation in its larger depreciation context and discusses the legal authorities that support cost segregation for depreciation purposes.

It shows practitioners how to identify projects that are good prospects for cost segregation and, to this end, provides print- outs of sample spreadsheets used to determine whether a cost segregation will be cost-effective. It also discusses what IRS is looking for in a quality cost segregation study and report.

Mr. Keppel walks the reader through the actual execution of a cost segregation study and report as a multi-step process, and as a multi-party process involving the tax practitioner, other experts and the client. He also discusses building a cost segregation practice and other issues related to cost segregation as a business. Order Here
