General Session

9:30am - 10:20am EDT Fraud Counterattack: Practical Strategies to Protect Your Business

Megan Miller, First Citizens Bank Building

This session provides an in-depth review of Research & Development (R&D) Tax Credits and cost segregation strategies, with emphasis on recent tax reform developments and One Big Beautiful Bill (OBBB) considerations. Topics include R&D credit qualification criteria, documentation and substantiation expectations, and Section 174 capitalization and amortization requirements, including how enacted and proposed legislative changes may impact treatment of research expenditures.

The presentation also covers cost segregation fundamentals, depreciation timing, and the continued bonus depreciation phase-down, with discussion of how OBBB-related provisions and potential extensions or modifications could affect planning strategies. Practical considerations will be addressed to help CPAs advise clients, manage cash-flow impacts, and navigate legislative uncertainty while minimizing IRS exam risk.
