Sec. 179 (make permanent): Extension and modification of increased expensing limitations and treatment of certain real property as section 179 property.

Bonus depreciation: Extension and modification. The provision extends bonus depreciation for property acquired and placed in service during 2015 through 2019 (with an additional year for certain property with a longer production period). The bonus depreciation percentage is 50 percent for property placed in service during 2015, 2016 and 2017 and phases down, with 40 percent in 2018, and 30 percent in 2019.
