Tax law changes

The superseding Rev. Proc. 2023-11 was issued and is noted at the bottom of the helpful article you posted.  This states research and experimental expenditures are charged to capital accounts (not long-term assets) and then provide an amortized deduction over 5 years (or 15 in some cases).  This becomes a basis calculation and is not included in your tax return.   Also, if the research and experimental expenditures were incurred before 12/31/21, Form 3115 is required to be filed.
