You May Qualify for a Tax Deduction by Financing Equipment in 2023

What is Section 179? It is a government incentive to reward businesses that invest in themselves. Businesses that purchase equipment help stimulate the economy.

Why is a Section 179 tax deduction important for your business? This tax benefit is an effective way to maximize your business’s profitability while investing in the equipment you need to succeed.

Here’s how it works. Jobs are created when businesses are encouraged to invest in themselves, like adding more equipment. Then there’s a corresponding increase in wages and payroll taxes from the businesses manufacturing, selling, and using the equipment.

Section 179 Deduction Limits for 2023

In 2023, the Section 179 deduction limit has been raised to $1,160,000 (an increase of $80,000 from 2022). This means your business can now deduct the entire cost of qualified equipment up to a total equipment purchase limit of $2.8 million.

If your business acquires equipment between January 1st to December 31st and uses it 50% of the time for your business before the end of the year, you can deduct it under Section 179.
