OB3 Curveballs: Federal Tax interplay and State Tax conformity

Wade Sutton (PwC’s WNTS International Tax Services Leader) guest hosts the podcast and is joined by Rob Ozmun, a State and Local Tax Partner, and Monic Kechik, PwC’s WNTS Federal Tax Services Leader. Together they discuss the OB3 ‘curveballs’ to the federal changes: Section 163(j) - ATI addbacks of depreciation and amortization; Section 174A - domestic expensing; Section 168(k) - the return to 100% bonus depreciation; and Section 168(n) - qualified production property (QPP). They explore how accelerated deductions can trigger BEAT and CAMT via ordering‑rule dynamics and book‑tax timing, creating cash‑vs‑ETR trade‑offs. They also examine state conformity models, rapid decoupling (e.g., D.C.), and wrinkles such as California’s departures and R&D credit capitalization.
