The House of Representatives and U.S. Senate each passed their versions of tax reform in the last couple of weeks.
· Depreciation or expensing for capital would be enlarged to 100% in the first year. The provision would sunset (expire) in five (5) years. Currently, qualified recycling equipment may be expensed at 50% in the first year.
· IC-DISC survived in the Senate version after it was slated to be eliminated. The House version did not include an alienation provision.
With several policy differences between the two proposals, both Chambers must reconcile their bills before going to the president for his signature.
· Both Chambers will soon vote to ‘Conference’ their respective bills together.
