About The R&D Tax Credit
The Research & Development Tax Credit is a federal incentive that allows companies to reduce income tax liability in the current tax year, and receive a cash refund for taxes paid in the last three years.
Many states have implemented their own version of the R&D Tax Credit, and qualifying businesses can claim both! In 2015, when the Protecting Americans From Tax Hikes (PATH) Act was put into place, the R&D Tax Credit became permanent, which revised qualifications that greatly expanded the eligibility for businesses to qualify. With these changes, qualifying small businesses may claim the Payroll Tax Credit to offset some of their payroll tax liability.
The majority of businesses are unaware that their daily operations could qualify to a dollar-for-dollar Tax Credit, irrespective of industry or company size. An activity that meets the 4-part test is a qualifying research activity and can potentially qualify for claiming R&D Tax Credit.
About The 179D Tax Deduction
The §179D Energy Efficient Commercial Building Property Deduction provides commercial building owners, and designers of buildings owned by public entities and designers of tax-exempt entities the opportunity to claim a tax deduction for installing qualifying energy-efficient buildings.
