IRS ATG Compliance

The 13-Step Detailed Engineering Approach

IRS Publication 5653 (Cost Segregation Audit Techniques Guide) establishes the quality elements every defensible study must contain. Every CaliberSeg report is engineered to meet all 13.

1

Preparer Qualifications

Study prepared by a Specialized Tax Engineer with construction-engineering or cost-estimation credentials.

2

Engagement Scope & Methodology

Documented scope of work, purpose, and the engineering methodology applied.

3

Property Inspection Evidence

High-resolution photographic documentation of interior and exterior components, keyed to every classification.

4

Cost Verification

Costs verified against closing statement, invoices, and our 197-line-item cost reference database.

5

Basis Reconciliation

Every dollar of depreciable basis reconciled to the original purchase price — to the penny.

6

Asset Grouping & Classification

Components grouped by MACRS recovery period (5, 7, 15, 27.5, 39-year) with authority citation for each.

7

Authority Documentation

Every classification carries its Rev. Proc. 87-56 asset class, ATG section reference, or Tax Court precedent.

8

Engineering Cost Estimates

Where new construction, RSMeans-grade engineering estimates applied — never free-form guesses.

9

Basis Allocation

Proper allocation between land (non-depreciable), §1245 personal property, and §1250 realty.

10

Indirect Cost Treatment

Soft costs, fees, and indirects allocated across asset classes in proportion to direct cost.

11

Site Improvements Identification

Parking, landscaping, fencing, signage, and utilities correctly identified as 15-year §1250 land improvements.

12

§1245 vs §1250 Distinction

Whiteco six-factor test applied to every contested component — personal property vs. structural realty.

13

Final Signed Report

Complete asset schedule, depreciation projection, evidence chain, and Specialized Tax Engineer certification — ready for your CPA.

Every study is Signed & Certified by a Specialized Tax Engineer — your Audit-Defense Lead of record. Their credentials and signature appear on every page of the final report.
