Research & Development Tax Credits

Research & Development Tax Credits

Companies that create new or improve upon existing products, processes, formulas, or software may be eligible for federal and state research and development (R&D) tax credits. If your company has invested time, money, and resources toward advancing and improving its products or processes, your activities may qualify.     

Our seasoned experts will guide you through the stages of an R&D study and help you thoroughly document your entitlement to the credit, in case of an IRS audit.  

R&D Study Stages

  • Assessment and feasibility  

  • Qualification determination and documentation

  • Credit calculation

  • Report delivery  

Could your business be eligible for R&D tax credits?

Some examples of industries that often qualify for the R&D tax credit include:  

  • Manufacturing  

  • Information Technology  

  • Telecommunications  

  • Aerospace  

  • Software Development  

  • Tool & Die  

  • Energy  

  • Pharmaceutical  

Private businesses should note the added value that the R&D tax credit can offer during mergers and acquisitions. Credits can be claimed in one year and taken in another, making it possible to transfer them to a buyer. Some companies claim the R&D credit annually for the specific purpose of enticing an M&A opportunity.
