The Federal and State R&D Tax Credit: How to Reduce the High-Cost of U.S. Labor Expense

In today’s hyper-competitive business climate, you need every edge that you can get to boost your firm’s after-tax profits.  Beyond the usual ways to increase revenue and contain operating expenses, did you know that there is a little-used research and development (R&D) tax credit that you can use to decrease your firm’s federal and state income tax obligations?

This credit is open to a majority of tax entity structures including C Corporations and Pass-Through entities such as S. Corps, LLC’s, Sole Proprietors and Partnerships.  If you are a U.S. Company and make products and/or services on U.S. soil, then there has to be, has to be, a credit available to you; the only question to answer now is “what is the size of your benefit?”

This webinar provides you with the latest insight on the R&D tax credit that is designed to reduce the high cost of innovation in the United States.  Unfortunately, too many A/E/C firm leaders mistakenly believe that this valuable tax credit does not apply to them.

  • Important details on recent law changes and the types of activities and expenses that qualify for the tax credit.

  • And more!

At the end of this session, you will understand:

  • The Congressional intent of this legislation.
  • What really constitutes a “Qualifying Research Expenditures”.
  • How to estimate potential tax credit benefits.
  • What to expect from an R&D Study.
