Section 179  - What You Need to Know

The IRS Section 179 deduction allows a company to depreciate up to 100 percent of a new or used equipment purchase. A depreciation deduction lowers the amount of taxes your business is required to pay.

  • 100% depreciation isn't offered every year, but it's available for purchases made this year before December 31st, 2018.
  • Forklifts, aerial lifts, utility vehicles and other material handling equipment qualify for the section 179 deduction.
  • New, used and leased equipment qualifies - up to a $1,000,000 write-off.
To qualify: equipment must be purchased or financed AND put into service before midnight on December 31, 2018.
