SECTION 179 TAX ALERT
Filed under: Alerts, information, News, Press Release, Sales and Marketing
Dec 1, 2011 Important 4th quarter tax planning implications – to take advantage of the incentives, you must act by the end of this month. Both the ‘Tax Relief Act of 2010′ as well as the ‘Jobs Act of 2010′ that passed in late 2010 affected Section 179 in a positive way for this 2011 tax year. The newest changes are as follows:
- The Section 179 Deduction limit increased to $500,000.
- The total amount of equipment that can be purchased increased to $2 million. This includes most new and used capital equipment, and also includes certain software.
- “Bonus Depreciation” increased to 100% on qualified assets. However, this can be taken on new equipment only.
When applying these provisions, Section 179 is generally taken first, followed by Bonus Depreciation – unless the business has no taxable profit in 2011.
Also, many businesses find Section 179 Qualified Financing to be an attractive option in 2011.

Filed under: information, Press Release, Sales and Marketing
November 6 is officially the greatest day of the year because as Daylight Saving Time ends, we actually gain an hour — and who doesn’t need more time?

When do we change our clocks?
Most of the United States begins Daylight Saving Time at 2:00 a.m. on the second Sunday in March and reverts to standard time on the first Sunday in November. In the U.S., each time zone switches at a different time.
In the European Union, Summer Time begins and ends at 1:00 a.m. Universal Time (Greenwich Mean Time). It begins the last Sunday in March and ends the last Sunday in October. In the EU, all time zones change at the same moment.

ATTENTION: section 179 tax deduction (news alert – section179.org)
According to Section 179 of The Tax Relief… 2010 Act, if a print shop purchases a wide format printer like the Legend 72HUV, they can deduct up to the full purchase amount in the first year – $85,000. In fact, those businesses investing less than $800,000 in qualifying equipment can immediately deduct up to $250,000 (that’s way up from the previous amount of $128,000). Spend over $250,000 that year on equipment and you get an additional 50% deprecation bonus.
