How Equipment Financing Delivers Tax Savings

What is Section 179?

Section 179 is part of the US Tax Code designed to help stimulate the economy. It encourages business owners to purchase equipment by allowing companies to depreciate up to 100% of the purchase in a single year. In 2018 the spending limit allowed under the code went up to $1,000,000.

The Tax Savings Can Be Big

As an example, if your company had $150,000 of taxable income and you purchased $150,000 of revenue producing equipment before the end of the year from Contractors Services, you could depreciate the purchase and fully offset your tax bill. If your tax rate is 21%, this would reduce your tax liability by $31,500 for the year! If you didn’t want to use all 100% of the equipment purchase, you can carry a portion over and use it in future years.

What About Section 179 For Next Year?

Section 179 is here to stay because Congress made it permanent in 2015 and increased the limit from $500,000 to $1,000,000 in 2018. This allows you to take advantage of the benefit each year and keep more money in your pocket to help your business grow.

Equipment Financing Tax Savings: FAQs

What equipment qualifies for the Section 179 deduction?
Most tangible business equipment qualifies, including Rattle Track® and Rattle Grate® trackout devices, Free Flow® curb ramps, and other revenue-producing equipment used more than 50% of the time for business purposes. Both new and used equipment can qualify, as long as it’s “new to you.”

How do I get started with equipment financing?
Getting started is simple. Reach out to AP Equipment Financing to review your options, or contact Golden Bear Services directly to discuss which trackout devices or curb ramps best fit your job site needs before financing your purchase.

Is there a deadline to take advantage of Section 179?
Yes. To claim the deduction for a given tax year, equipment must be purchased and put into service by December 31st of that year. Talk to your accountant early to make sure your purchase timeline lines up with your tax planning.

Can I finance and still get the full tax deduction?
Yes. One of the advantages of equipment financing is that you can often deduct the full purchase price under Section 179 in the year you buy the equipment, even if you’re paying for it over time through a financing plan.
