for the REG exam, is the new Sec. 179 deduction now 500,000? (rather than 2012’s 125,000)

Yes

You should also grab this free REG chapter that has some updates as well: https://www.another71.com/cpa-exam-study-plan/

Yes. https://www.section179.org/

They also retroactively raised 2012 to 500,000. I wonder if the tests will show that or not?

FAR - 84
AUD - 94
REG - 86
BEC - 86

If you went off of that site – you would have had it wrong for the first half of 2013 exams. Some review courses had it wrong as well.

Any advice on the other big ones we should be aware of? After reviewing, the ones that seemed worth remembering were the new 10% medical expense deduction for people under 65, this Section 179 new amount, and the IRA amount raising from 5K to 5.5K.

Obviously I want to be aware of the changes that may show up on the exam, but don't want to spend too much time worrying about ALL of them with only a week left to study.

There were some changes to gift/estates…Section 506 of Reg D…some others.

ninja notes reflect the updates if you have them.
