Small Business Jobs Act: A Windfall for Small to Mid-sized
Manufacturers
Wednesday, September 29, 2010
By Mark Lauber and Karim Solanji
With a resounding and somewhat historic move, Congress passed and the President
signed into law the Small Business Jobs Act (SBJA). The SBJA provides tax relief
for small and medium sized businesses for 2010. Of particular and significant
note are two provisions: the modification to a five year credit carryback and
the modification of the Alternative Minimum Tax (AMT) in relation to general
business credits.
Five Year Carryback on Unused General Business Credits
Previously, the carryback and carryforward rules for general business credits
stated, generally, that unused credits were to be carried back only one year
and, if unused in that year, then carried forward up to twenty years. The
previous rules did not provide the immediate tax relief many taxpayers needed.
With the SBJA, taxpayers will be able to carry back unused credits generated in
2010 a total of five years before having to carry them forward. This change will
allow many taxpayers who have been hit recently by the economy to still receive
an immediate tax benefit, even if they are unprofitable in 2010.
General Business Credits Not Subject to AMT
Prior to the SBJA, general business credits generated by a taxpayer were subject
to the AMT. This credit subjugation to the AMT drastically limited or completely
eliminated the benefit of the general business credit to many taxpayers. With
the passage of the SBJA by Congress, many small to medium sized businesses will
not have this AMT limitation applied to general business credits generated in
2010.
Congress has defined the businesses that can take advantage of this AMT change
as being sole proprietorships, partnerships, and non-publicly traded
corporations with $50 million or less in average annual gross receipts for the
prior three years.
With more than 20 million Americans paying AMT, the ability for business owners
to reduce their taxable liability through a slew of general business credits,
including, the R&D Tax Credit, is especially significant.
Immediate Tax Relief
These two provisions will provide the immediate tax relief needed by many small
to medium sized businesses to help them succeed in today's economy. It is
noteworthy that these provisions will apply to the Research and Development Tax
Credit when it is passed later this year, thereby allowing many taxpayers to
take advantage of this credit that previously were unable to due to a lack of
utilization.
The Positive Effect on the R&D Tax Credit
Due to the economy the last few years, many manufacturers have been unable to
take advantage of the R&D Tax Credit. The main reason being that the taxpayers
for these companies were subject to AMT. Now with the SBJA, the R&D Tax Credit
can reduce a taxpayer's tax liability, regardless of AMT, thereby opening up the
R&D Tax Credit to most of these taxpayers.
Even for smaller manufacturers, the R&D Tax Credit can be significant. Here are
some examples:
Example 1 - 4 Year Study
Annual Payroll: $1.7 MM
Total Credit: $80,000
Example 2 - 1 Year Study
Annual Payroll: $6.5 MM
Total Credit: $50,000
Example 3 - 4 Year Study
Annual Payroll: $1 MM
Total Credit: $60,000
Example 4 - 1 Year Study
Annual Payroll: $3.5 MM
Total Credit: $60,000
Contact a consulting firm specializing in the R&D tax Credit to learn more. The
firm will have the knowledge to help determine if your company can take
advantage of the Small Business Jobs Act as it relates to the R&D Tax Credit. If
you can, it can result in a substantial reduction in your 2010 tax liability and
a tax refund for previous tax years.
