Industrial Equipment
On December 17, 2010, President Obama signed the 2010 Tax Relief Act into law. The Tax Relief Act includes provisions for businesses making equipment purchases during 2011.

Under prior law, a business could claim an extra 50% depreciation deduction for qualified new equipment as "bonus depreciation."

The 2010 Tax Relief Act changes the "bonus depreciation" amount to 100% of the cost of qualified new equipment that is purchased and in service by December 31, 2011.

As of January 1, 2012, the "bonus depreciation" will change back to 50%.
