 SECTION 1. PURPOSE      
     
This revenue procedure sets forth inflation-adjusted items for 2023 for various Code provisions as in effect on October 18, 2022. The inflation adjusted items for the Code sections set forth in section 3 of this revenue procedure are generally determined by reference to §    1(f) of the Code. To the extent amendments to the Code are enacted for 2023 after October 18, 2022, taxpayers should consult additional guidance to determine whether these adjustments remain applicable for 2023.   
     
 SECTION 2. CHANGES.01 For taxable years beginning after December 31, 2022, §    13303(a)(1) of Public Law 117-169, 136 Stat. 1818 (August 16, 2022), commonly known as the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 (IRA), modifies the maximum amount of the energy efficient commercial buildings deduction under § 179D.   
     
(1) For taxable years beginning in 2023, the applicable dollar value used to determine the maximum allowance of the deduction under §    179D(b) is $0.50 increased (but not above $1.00) by $0.02 for each percentage point by which the total annual energy and power costs for the building are certified to be reduced by a percentage greater than 25 percent.   
     
(2) For taxable years beginning in 2023, the applicable dollar value used to determine the increased deduction amount for certain property under § 179D(b)(3)(A) is $2.50 increased (but not above $5.00) by $0.10 for each percentage point by which the total annual energy and power costs for the building are certified to be reduced by a percentage greater than 25 percent..02 The amounts set forth in section 2.01 of this revenue procedure are adjusted for inflation for taxable years beginning in 2023.   
     
 SECTION 3. 2023 ADJUSTED ITEMS.01 Tax Rate Tables. For taxable years beginning in 2023, the tax rate tables under § 1 are as follows:   
     
TABLE 1 - Section 1(j)(2)(A) - Married Individuals Filing Joint Returns and Surviving Spouses   
     
           
     
TABLE 2 - Section 1(j)(2)(B) - Heads of Households   
     
           
     
TABLE 3 - Section 1(j)(2)(C) -Unmarried Individuals (other than Surviving Spouses and Heads of Households)

TABLE 5 - Section 1(j)(2)(E) - Estates and Trusts.02 Unearned Income of Minor Children Subject to the "Kiddie Tax". For taxable years beginning in 2023, the amount in § 1(g)(4)(A)(ii)(I), which is used to reduce the net unearned income reported on the child's return that is subject to the "kiddie tax," is $1,250. This $1,250 amount is the same as the amount provided in §    63(c)(5)(A), as adjusted for inflation. The same $1,250 amount is used for purposes of § 1(g)(7) to determine whether a parent may elect to include a child's gross income in the parent's gross income and to calculate the "kiddie tax." For example, one of the requirements for the parental election is that a child's gross income is more than the amount referenced in § 1(g)(4)(A)(ii)(I) but less than 10 times that amount; thus, a child's gross income for 2023 must be more than $1,250 but less than $12,500..03 Maximum Capital Gains Rate (§1(h), §1(j)(5)). For taxable years beginning in 2023, the maximum zero rate amounts and maximum 15 percent rate amounts under §    1(j)(5)(B) are as follows:.04 Adoption Credit.

The "completed phaseout amount" is the amount of adjusted gross income (or, if greater, earned income) at or above which no credit is allowed. The threshold phaseout amounts and the completed phaseout amounts shown in the table below for married taxpayers filing a joint return include the increase provided in §    32(b)(2)(B), as adjusted for inflation for taxable years beginning in 2023. The threshold phaseout amounts and the completed phaseout amounts shown in the table below for single, surviving spouse, or head of household taxpayers also apply to married taxpayers who are not filing a joint return and satisfy the special rules for separated spouses in § 32(d).
