Today we’re reviewing tax codes – wait don’t go! While some tax topics can be complicated, there’s one that is pretty straight-forward, and it can generate BIG savings for your business. It is especially important this year because they are allowing larger write offs for the equipment you purchase to keep your business running smoothly.

The tax code in question? It’s Section 179*. The beauty of this deduction is that it allows your business to write off the whole purchase price on qualifying equipment in the current tax year. In the simplest terms, you could write off up to $1,080,000 on your 2022 tax return. It helps to lower your taxable income, meaning that you can keep more of what you earned in 2022 rather than paying it in taxes. Still not convinced? Keep reading and bring up Section 179 to your tax preparer.[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_column_text]*We’re barcode and RFID experts, not tax specialists.

ELIGIBILITY

Companies

There are a variety of small and medium businesses this deduction applies to. If your business has purchased, financed, and/or leased new or used business equipment during tax year 2022, you should qualify for the Section 179 Deduction. There is a cap for how much you can spend on equipment to qualify, but we will get back to that in a minute.

 

Equipment

Section 179 applies to equipment, tools, hardware and out-of-the-box software for your business. These items can be new, or new-to-you, as long as they were purchased and put into use within 2022.[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_column_text]DEDUCTION DETAILS

Limit

$1,080,000 can be written off for new and used equipment. It also applies to off-the-shelf software. The limit to the total amount of equipment purchased is $2,700,000.

After $2,700,000, the deduction begins to phase out on a dollar-for-dollar basis. If your company spent more than $3,780,000 on equipment this tax year, we’re sorry to say this deduction does not apply to you.[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”20px”][vc_column_text]

Business Use Rule

Two more caveats about the equipment:

1. the applicable equipment must be used for business purposes more than 50% of the time to qualify for the deduction.
2. Despite supply chain pressures, equipment purchased in 2022 must still be put into use before Dec. 31, 2022, to qualify. Please keep lead times in mind before you buy.

Deadline

To qualify for your 2022 tax return, your equipment must be financed or purchased and put into service between January 1st, 2022 and December 31st, 2022.[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_column_text]

BONUS DEPRECIATION

Big businesses, this one’s for you! Bonus Depreciation can be taken after the Section 179 spending cap is reached. Some years it is offered, some years it isn’t. This year, not only is it offered at 100%, but you can also use the bonus depreciation on new and/or new-to-you (used) equipment.[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_column_text]
