Cost segregation simply classifies commercial property assets into each appropriate life-class (5-, 7-, 15-, or 39-years). If an architect takes into consideration “how” a building is designed with federal income tax consequences in mind, at least two things would occur.

After completing our site analysis and reviewing all AIA data and construction drawings, we re-classified 33.6% of the building’s assets from 39-year SL depreciation to 5- and 15-year MACRS depreciation.…
I’m curious, would it have made sense for Peco to have created a holding company, sold the assets to the new company and then performed a new cost seg study? A new tax-basis would then be in place and qualify for a new study…any ramifications to that I’m missing? Seems to me a lot of…
My initially thought is this could mean trouble to a firm doing a PPA study with cost seg “after the fact” if assets are not specifically identified in the buy-sell agreement or corresponding document.
