Exciting news for Arizona Business Owners regarding Federal
Tax Deductions!
The US Treasury Department has introduced
proposed amendments clarifying that Arizona S-Corps or LLCs that file like an
S-Corp can deduct state tax credit donations on Federal tax returns. The
clarification holds up that Section 162 of the Tax Code will allow eligible
businesses that make an Arizona tax credit donation to deduct the donation on
their federal taxes as a business expense.
The business must believe that there is a
reasonable expectation that their donation will give them name recognition or
goodwill in the community. Alternatively, the business must believe they have a
reasonable expectation that the donation will enhance the community and bring
employment opportunities to the business with a possible financial return in
the future.
The corporate tax credit cap for 2019-2020 has already been met. Arizona eligible businesses are already planning for next year's Corporate Donations which opens up on July 1, 2020. As always, please confirm with your CPA or tax preparer that this opportunity is best for you.
