What are the benefits of the R&D tax credit for your company?
Your company can benefit greatly from the R&D Tax Credit. It offers a dollar-for-dollar reduction in your tax bill. There is no upper limit on the expenses you can claim and with it, you may be able to receive up to 10% of your annual R&D costs in federal credits, and even more when you include state credits. Unused credit can be carried back one year or forward up to 20 years, however, individual states have their own rules for carryover periods. With this, businesses can gain access to extra cash – giving them greater financial freedom in the future.
Claiming the R&D Tax Credit
Claiming the R&D credit can bring notable savings for your organization. Depending on the situation, this could mean either reducing income tax in any of the open tax years or taking advantage of federal and state tax credits carried forward for up to 20 years. The newly expanded regulations allow the federal credit to even offset payroll taxes. Therefore, it is certainly worth investigating your prospects for such potential tax-saving opportunities. You can get your R&D tax credit with the help of our tax advisors.
Personalized Services
No two individuals or businesses are the same; as such, we tailor our services to meet the specific needs of each of our clients. As you and your business evolve, our services evolve to fit your needs.
