Understanding Bonus Depreciation Changes: What You Need to Know for 2024

0:00 01:00

Bonus depreciation has undergone significant changes over the past few years. Once at 100%, it dropped to 80% in 2023 and will decrease further to 60% in 2024. This means if you purchase a $1,000 item, only $600 can be deducted immediately, with the remaining $400 subject to straight-line depreciation. Tune in to learn how these adjustments could impact your tax planning, and don’t forget to budget accordingly!

Bonus depreciation. It is an amazing thing. And for up until, what, 2023, 2022, I guess 2022, it was 100%. I go out and buy a computer. I got to spend 100% of that right off my taxes in that first year. 2023 comes along and they basically said, nope, we’re going to go to 80%. And now they’re going to go 2024. We’re going to go down to 60%. 60%. So now you buy that computer for a thousand dollars. We’re only deducting 600 of it. The other four will be straight line depreciation. Make sure you budget that in when you’re thinking about taxes. 615-367-0819.
