A Comprehensive Source Advisors Case Study

Cost Segregation for Distribution Centers

In the world of distribution centers, having a custom-built facility can lead to some interesting tax situations. See how Source Advisors used Cost Segregation to tap into great tax benefits for a chemical distribution center.

The Source Advisors Solution

The Source Advisors Cost Segregation engineers analyzed the construction costs, in the form of contractor invoices and allocated the cost detail to various trades and building components.

Our engineers conducted detailed estimates from the construction drawings and augmented those findings with additional estimates performed during the site visit of the property. Key property personnel were also interviewed, and a detailed report was delivered, identifying and documenting all of the components that qualify for a shorter tax life.

Financial Results

Following this extensive examination, Source Advisors accomplished:

31% or
$2,450,000

Categorized as 15-year land improvements.

13% or
$1,030,000

Recognized as 5-year tangible personal property.

The findings for this distribution center leaned towards the higher end of the typical range, credited to its distinct features. Since the construction was substantially underway before 09/27/20, the personal property and land improvements earned eligibility for 40% bonus depreciation under the PATH Act.
