Definition of Cost Segregation

Cost segregation is the process of determining property costs and components to calculate depreciation values for federal income tax. It works as a tax deferral tool by allowing property owners to increase the annual depreciation rate of their properties. Normally utilized in new construction, renovations or acquisitions, the process of cost segregation can reduce a property owner's federal income tax by increasing annual property depreciation values.

The process of cost segregation consists of many important steps. In order to prepare a report, property must undergo a business appraisal to identify items that are eligible. Collection and analysis of all relevant project costs and engineering data as an important part of the cost segregation process, along with allocation of indirect project costs to direct project costs.
