2021 IRS EQUIPMENT TAX LINK SECTION 179







             2021 Deduction Limit is $1,050,000  -  (ONE MILLION & FIFTY THOUSAND DOLLARS)
Available for New and Used Equipment, Vehicles, Machinery, etc., in addition to Off-the-Shelf Software purchases (Not Applicable for Custom Software). To use this deduction in Tax Year 2021, the Equipment must be Financed and put into Service by end-of-day on December 31, 2021.


                                              ~ Bonus Depreciation: 100% for 2021 ~

Bonus Depreciation is in addition to Section 179. Some years it isn’t applicable but in 2021 it is one hundred percent. What that means is that equipment costing more than $1,050,000 can still get the full deduction. Important: Section 179 has always been available for the purchase of new or used equipment but 2021 is the first time that Bonus Depreciation is available to both new and used equipment. Also note worthy is that businesses with a net loss qualify to deduct some of the cost of new equipment and carry-forward the loss.

                                 2021 Spending Cap on Equipment Purchases is $2,620,000.

Spend up to $2,620,000 on equipment. Beyond $2.62 million, the Section 179 Deduction starts to drop — dollar for dollar. This cap makes Section 179 a “small/medium business tax incentive”

(FYI: larger businesses that spend more than $3.67 million on equipment won’t get the tax break.)
