About the Event

The R&D tax credit offers numerous benefits for small businesses, including the payroll tax credit for qualified small businesses and refundable state tax credits. With cash flow being critical for small businesses during these uncertain times, taking advantage of these credits can provide a significant boost to the bottom line. The payroll tax credit for qualified small businesses provides immediate cash benefits, allowing small businesses to offset payroll taxes by up to $250,000 per year, and will increase to a max of $500,000 in for expenses incurred in 2023. Refundable state tax credits for R&D can further increase cash flow, providing valuable resources for innovation and growth. In today's economy, small businesses need to be agile and competitive, and leveraging the R&D tax credit can help them achieve these goals while reducing their tax liabilities and freeing up cash for investment in their business.
