    <p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Uniform Capitalization (UNICAP) is an IRS requirement that manufacturing companies capitalize (add to inventory value) a portion of indirect costs rather than deducting them immediately.<\/span><\/p><p><strong>Costs That Must Be Capitalized Under UNICAP:<\/strong><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">- Indirect labor (supervisors, quality control, maintenance)<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">- Utilities and facility costs for manufacturing<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">- Depreciation on manufacturing equipment and facilities<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">- Engineering and design costs<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">- Equipment repairs and maintenance<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">- Indirect materials and supplies<\/span><\/p><p><strong>How It Works:<\/strong><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Rather than deducting these indirect costs immediately, you add them to inventory value. They're expensed as Cost of Goods Sold when the product sells.<\/span><\/p><p><strong>UNICAP Thresholds:<\/strong><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The IRS changed UNICAP thresholds in the 2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act. Many smaller manufacturers now qualify for simplified UNICAP methods.
