Bill Summary

A bill to amend the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 to permanently allow a tax deduction at the time an investment in qualified property is made, and for other purposes.

It also modifies depreciation provisions for residential rental property and nonresidential real property. The bill repeals provisions for the amortization of research and experimental expenditures, thus providing for direct expensing of such expenditures.
