Cost of Getting a Lease
If you get a lease for business property, you recover the cost by
amortizing it over the term of the lease. The term of the lease for
amortization purposes includes all renewal options (and any other
period for which the lessee and lessor reasonably expect the lease to
be renewed) if less than 75% of the cost of getting the lease is
attributable to the term of the lease remaining on the acquisition
date. The term of the lease remaining on the acquisition date does not
include any period for which the lease may later be renewed, extended,
or continued under an option exercisable by the lessee.
Enter your deduction in Part VI of Form 4562 if you must file that
form, or on the appropriate line of your tax return.
