Second, to claim the “bonus” rate, taxpayers also must ensure that, with respect to the construction of a qualified facility, no fewer than the “applicable percentage” of total labor hours are performed by qualified apprentices. The applicable percentage is 10% for projects beginning construction before 2023, 12.5% for projects beginning construction during 2023 and 15% for projects beginning construction thereafter. Each contractor and subcontractor who employs four or more individuals to perform construction on an applicable project must employ at least one qualified apprentice.

(c) Includes deliveries received through June 30, 2022, 23 expected -8 deliveries in third quarter 2022, and 31 expected -8 deliveries in fourth quarter 2022, for a total of deliveries in 2022. While the Company is contractually scheduled to receive 114 MAX deliveries, including options, this year, a portion of its deliveries are expected to shift into 2023 due to Boeing’s supply chain challenges and the current status of the -7 certification. Furthermore, given the current ongoing status of the -7 certification and pace of expected deliveries AINsight: Maximize Aircraft Bonus Depreciation in 2019 for the remainder of this year, it is the Company’s assumption that it will receive no -7 aircraft deliveries in 2022, and has the ability to convert -7s to -8s as noted in footnote (b). The Company’s second quarter 2022 capital expenditures were $987 million driven primarily by aircraft-related capital expenditures, as well as technology, facilities, and operational investments. The Company now estimates its 2022 capital spending to be approximately $4.0 billion, which assumes the exercise of its five remaining 2022 options, and a total of aircraft deliveries in 2022, compared with its previous 2022 capital spending guidance of approximately $5.0 billion which assumed the delivery of 114 MAX aircraft in 2022.

The TCJA 100% bonus depreciation starts to phase out after 2022

The adjusted basis of the assets (the cost less the expensed amount and bonus depreciation) is then depreciated over the life of the assets. The ITC is claimed as a percentage of a project’s eligible cost basis, up to 30%. Prior to the Act, for certain projects beginning construction after 2019, the 30% ITC percentage otherwise available was reduced to 26% (in the case of projects beginning construction before 2023) and was scheduled to be reduced to 22% (in the case of projects beginning  construction during 2023).

These provisions exist solely to encourage businesses to invest in new assets. Although both were very taxpayper options for a number of years, bonus depreciation is not available after 2013 and the value of the expensing election has been severely reduced. To qualify for the credit, construction of the qualified facility at which the carbon capture equipment is used generally must begin before 2026 and construction of the carbon capture equipment must also begin by such date (or must otherwise have been contemplated in the original planning and design for the qualified facility). As with the PTC, the retroactive extension of the full ITC to projects that are placed in service after 2021 will allow projects that previously began construction but were subject to a reduced ITC under the phase-out schedule to benefit from higher credits, including projects that were already placed in service during 2022 prior to the enactment of the Act.

Based on recent discussions with Boeing regarding the pace of expected deliveries for the remainder of this year, the Company is currently estimating it will receive a total of aircraft deliveries and no -7 deliveries in 2022. The Company’s second quarter 2022 CASM-X increase was primarily due to continued unit cost headwinds from operating at suboptimal productivity levels, inflation in labor rates and airport costs, and accruals for expected future contractual wage rate increases. However, the Company’s second quarter 2022 CASM-X increase was lower than its previous guidance range primarily due to lower benefits costs, as well as the shifting of certain maintenance costs from second quarter to second half 2022.

Even the relatively small decrease from 100 to 80% deductibility can have a significant impact on the current bottom line as well as the information that must be tracked for depreciation deductions in the future. As bonus depreciation phases out over the next few years, some small businesses may be able to maintain some initial-year expensing using Internal Revenue Code (IRC) Section 179 rules, but those are definitely less attractive than the current bonus depreciation allowances.
