How does property used in a qualified trade or business factor into the QBI deduction calculation?  What types of property are considered for the QBI deduction?

What will be an ideal response?


Qualified property is used to determine one of the limitations to the QBI deduction.  Specifically, 2.5 percent of qualified property is added to 25 percent of W-2 wages to determine this limitation. Qualifiedpropertyincludes depreciabletangibleproperty – real or personal – that is used by theQTB during the year and whose “depreciable period” has not ended before the end of the taxable year.  As a result, land and intangible assets are not qualified property.  Given the broad-based changes to MACRS – allowing taxpayers to expense (via § 179 and/or bonus depreciation) property other than real estate – thedepreciable period for qualified property under § 199A is a minimum of 10 years.
