- Rental property depreciation will now flow to Form 8990, Line 11 on release 2018.03010.

- Assets for current year with method M and life of 27.5 will update to ADS and 30.

- Assets for prior year with method MSL, life of 15, and a Real Property section 179 code of 1, 2 or 3 will update to ADS and life of 39.
- If you need to make an opt out election for new assets after an initial opt out was done, you will need to delete and re-enter the grid information on the 8990 worksheet. Make sure to calculate after deleting, prior to re-entering the data.
- Asset Calculation: We changed ADS to calculate depreciation using the remaining ADS life and remaining basis. This is due to the 8990 subject to business interest expense. Clients that are subject to this and opt out of this are required to use ADS. Any assets that switch to ADS method are required to be calculated this way. If the accumulated depreciation is correct, the ADS depreciation should be the same when using the tables and when using remaining life and remaining basis. (For example: The asset would calculate as follows. 50,215 - 35,886 = 14,329. You then take 14,329 divided by 4.5 (remaining life) = 3,184.)
