Section 179 of the I.R.S. tax code offers significant deductions on qualifying business vehicles.
You may qualify if you:
- Are a business that purchased or financed qualifying new or used business equipment, including certain business-use vehicles, during the 2020 tax year.
- Put the equipment into service between January 1, 2020, and December 31, 2020.
- Used this equipment for business purposes more than 50% of the time.
- Spent less than $3,500,000 on this equipment.
How much could I deduct?
- You cannot write off more than $1,000,000.
- The total amount of equipment purchase cannot be more than $2,500,000. It phases out dollar-for-dollar after that, so once $3,500,000 is spent, the deduction goes away entirely.
