Equipment financing may help your business take advantage of meaningful tax benefits.
Section 179 of the Internal Revenue Code allows qualifying businesses to deduct the full purchase price of eligible equipment in the year it is placed into service, subject to current IRS limits and guidelines. In many cases, this deduction can significantly reduce your tax liability.
Financed equipment may qualify, meaning you don’t have to pay cash upfront to potentially benefit from the deduction.
We encourage you to consult your tax advisor for specific details regarding eligibility and current limits.
Under current IRS guidelines, businesses may deduct up to the allowable annual limit of qualifying equipment purchases in the year the equipment is put into use. This can create substantial tax savings while allowing you to preserve working capital.
Let’s say you are considering new equipment for your business at a cost of $25,000. You don’t want to tie up all of your cash or your lines of credit so you choose financing. You secure financing through Banleaco, take delivery of the equipment and put it into use by July 1st.
Assuming you are in the 21% tax bracket your purchase could save $5,250 in federal taxes. ($25,000 for the equipment x 21% federal tax). Based on a 60 month term, your payments would be $2,892 through the end of the year.
The tax savings cover the payments and!
In this example, the potential tax savings would exceed the payments made during the same period – leaving you nearly $2,400 in your pocket, preserving cash flow, while putting the equipment to work immediately.
