(a)
In general. (1) Except as provided in paragraph (b) of this section, § 1.181-1T applies to productions, the first day of principal photography for which occurs on or after October 18, 2011, and before the date of expiration of section 181 as provided in section 181(f). For an animated production, this paragraph (a) applies by substituting “in-between animation” in place of “principal photography.” Productions involving both animation and live-action photography may use either standard.(2) The applicability of § 1.181-1T expires on October 17, 2014.
(b)
Application of temporary regulations to pre-effective date productions. An owner may apply § 1.181-1T to productions, the first day of principal photography (or “in-between” animation) for which occurs after December 31, 2007, and before October 18, 2011, provided that the taxpayer applies all provisions in § 1.181-1T and in §§ 1.181-1 through 1.181-5 (other than provisions specific to pre-amendment productions) to the productions. If a taxpayer does not choose to apply § 1.181-1T to a production, the first day of principal photography (or “in-between” animation) for which occurs after December 31, 2007, and before October 18, 2011, then the taxpayer must use a reasonable method to take into account the statutory change to section 181 under section 502 of the Tax Extenders and Alternative Minimum Tax Relief Act of 2008.
