2 Generate Cash and Tax Savings from Current and Past Investments Nathan Clark Senior Director, BDO USA, LLP Parker Pieri Director of Finance, The Dwyer Group
3 Next to being shot at and missed, nothing is really quite as satisfying as an income tax refund. F. J. Raymond, humorist (
4 GENERATE CASH, SAVE TAXES Do you like paying more taxes than required? Anyone have difficulty getting a loan? Cash is King!
5 SESSION OBJECTIVES What questions you should be asking (or someone should be asking you) Optimize tax deductions you are entitled to Learn how to increase your cash flow Improve return on investment for property
6 OVERVIEW Franchisees and franchisors can benefit from the recent developments and existing provisions in U.S. tax law. New construction Acquisition of existing stores, building, facilities Improvements to leased space Identifying deductible costs Remodeling and renovations Tenant allowances
7 A WORD ABOUT TAX SPEAK I do solemnly swear to limit tax speak to the following terms Depreciation spread deductions over the period to which they relate Bonus Depreciation special deduction incentives provided by Congress Nexus The degree of connectedness to a jurisdiction, typically a state
8 Income tax has made more liars out of the American people than golf. Will Rogers, humorist (
9 CAPITALIZE VS. DEDUCTION Investments in property that last more than one year must be capitalized Capital costs are deducted over time through depreciation as defined by the IRS Essentially, spreading the investment over the periods the property is used
10 CAPITALIZE VS. DEDUCTION Certain costs are eligible for immediate expense: Repairs and maintenance Materials and supplies Internally developed software Asset expense election
11 MY CPA DOES THIS ALREADY Consider the questions throughout. Deductions are being missed if you are not addressing these questions. Large and small organizations routinely miss these deductions
12 WHY IS THIS DIFFICULT? Complex tax system Uncertain tax system Lack of information Lack of bandwidth Accounting/financial process limitations Changes in ownership of assets Staff turnover
13 WHY IS THIS SO DIFFICULT? True example: IRC Section 168, depreciable life of property Property which has an actual life of between 4 and 10 years is deemed to be 5-year property which means it has a recovery period of 5 years, which means a taxpayer must depreciate it over 6 years.
14 EXAMPLE TAX LAW CHANGES $100 invested in leasehold improvements 2007: No Bonus, Deduct over 15 years 2009: 50% Bonus, Deduct over 15 years 2011: 100% Bonus 2012: 50% Bonus, Deduct over 39 years 2013: No Bonus, Deduct over 39 years
15 EXAMPLE TAX LAW CHANGES $100 $90 $80 $70 $60 $50 $40 $30 $20 $10 $ Year
16 RECENT DEVELOPMENTS Bonus depreciation 100% Bonus depreciation expired in % Bonus depreciation expiring in 2012 Certain Leasehold Improvements 15-year life expired in 2011 Reverted to 39 years for 2012 and forward
17 RECENT DEVELOPMENTS Personal property asset expense election $500,000 in 2011 $139,000 in 2012 New Repair law effective for 2012 and forward 250 pages 2 supplemental bulletins covering transition
18 QUESTIONS TO ASK Have I: Claimed the maximum Bonus depreciation? Capitalized costs that are eligible for immediate deduction? Claimed a 15-year life and Bonus depreciation on leasehold improvements?
19 The hardest thing in the world to understand is the Income Tax. Albert Einstein (
20 HOW ARE INVESTMENTS RECOVERED? Depreciate assets when ready for use Depreciated according to property type Real property 39 years Land improvements 15 years Equipment (personal property) 5 or 7 years Software 3 years
21 HOW ARE INVESTMENTS RECOVERED? Property type also dictates speed of deductions Real property evenly spread over life Personal Property More deductions in early years Eligible for Bonus depreciation
22 DEDUCTION STREAM: $100 ASSET $40 $35 $30 $25 $20 $15 $10 $5 $0 Equip. Land Imp. Real Prop Year
23 QUESTIONS TO ASK Have I: Capitalized costs unnecessarily? Capitalized all assets that are in use? Analyzed Construction in Process accounts to place eligible assets in service?
24 QUESTIONS TO ASK Have I: Performed a Cost Segregation analysis? Assigned the shortest life possible? Claimed all eligible Bonus depreciation?
25 WHAT IS COST SEGREGATION? Segregation of the costs of real and personal property and land improvements 39-Year Real Property 15-Year Land Improvements 5 and 7-Year - Equipment Segregation of costs allocable to each bucket of costs
26 WHAT IS COST SEGREGATION? Targets embedded construction costs ie: Electrical and plumbing supporting equipment Allocation of soft costs or indirect costs to each bucket of costs Identification of depreciation methods and lives, e.g., Bonus depreciation, 5 vs. 7 year, 15 vs. 39 year

38 COMPARISON: TOTAL ANNUAL DEDUCTIONS $20,000 Cost Seg + 50% Bonus Cost Seg, No Bonus 39-Year $15,000 $10,000 $5,000 $ Year
39 WHEN TO PERFORM A COST SEG? For all real property: New construction At time of acquisition Major remodels or renovations For all existing real estate acquired after 1986
40 COST SEG PROCEDURES Engineering based analysis Examination of blue prints and drawings Review of cost documentation Site inspection Adherence to the IRS audit guide
41 QUESTIONS TO ASK Has a cost seg been performed on this year s real property construction, acquisition, or remodel? Has a cost seg analysis been performed on all existing real property holdings? What is my actual cash benefit to performing a cost seg study?

58 People who complain about taxes can be divided into two classes: men and women. Unknown (

62 QUESTIONS TO ASK Have I ever received a franchise fee? In what state was the payee of the fee? Did I file an income tax return in that state?
