Research and Development Tax Credits
Manufacturing Incentives (R&D Tax Credit) This is a Federal program listed under Section 41 of the IRC (Internal Revenue Code) This is an engineered based program that focuses on a company’s operation and processes in order to determine their qualification for incentives. The Manufacturing Incentives benefit provides an avenue to receive ‘tax money’ back from prior years while also reducing current income on a dollar-for-dollar basis. The R&D Tax Credit was originally enacted as a Federal Tax Program in 1981. In 2004 tax regulation changes significantly expanded the credit opportunity. Today the credit is accessible to many small and medium sized companies whose activities include design, manufacturing and process improvements.
