Evaluate zoning and environmental requirements


Question: Wee Works specializes in renting space to very small high tech start ups. It owns several properties in various cities in the US that are trying to attract start ups. Even though it is a bit outside its usual profile of locations, in 20x2, Wee Works hires a consulting firm to conduct market surveys, evaluate zoning and environmental requirements and make preliminary reports and recommendations regarding which cities in Central and South America it should consider for purposes of locating a new building to purchase. In 20x2 Wee Works pays the consulting firm a considerable amount of money and capitalizes that amount on its AFS. May Wee Works deduct such amounts currently on its tax return? a. No, because Wee Works capitalizes these amounts on its AFS. b. No, because such amounts are inherently facilitative amounts for the acquisition of real property. c. Yes, because such amounts are not inherently facilitative. d. No, because, even though they are not inherently facilitative, Wee Works does not deduct them on its AFS.
