Companies are asking lawmakers to repeal a change in the tax code that requires businesses to spread their research-and-development costs over five years rather than deduct them immediately

The companies either didn’t immediately respond to requests for comment or declined to comment beyond the letter.

Companies are currently assessing how much can be deducted to offset those expenses, Mr. Castro said. Rising interest rates, high inflation and a cooling economy have made that calculation more important than when the law was enacted in 2017 as it is more appealing financially for companies to have the benefit now versus over five or 15 years. “When you spread out the deduction over five years, that is less powerful than incurring the deduction in the first year,” Mr. Castro said.

Companies in the U.S. can still take a credit for their increased spending on qualifying research and development. Tax deductions are subtractions from taxable income while tax credits get subtracted from the amount of tax owed. The credits along with the deductions incentivize companies to invest in innovation, tax attorneys said.

WSJ News Exclusive | Airbnb to Make Cleaning Fees Clearer on Searches After Customer ComplaintsStarting in December, Airbnb will allow guests to filter their search results by total cost of the stay—including those often-maligned cleaning fees—before taxes ‘Bout damn time. I know. It’s so confusing! And now Airbnb raised their fees and added approx $15 per stay for themselves (based on percentages) I’d rather Airbnb property owners pad the “per night” rate $10-15 then tell me cleaning a house that’s professionally cleaned — often in high season is $150+ Or charge a “mess” fee: renters upload pics as they leave the property of each room (for ins.) + charge extra then
