Every day between Christmas and New Year\u2019s Day we field a zillion questions on year-end tax planning. While some ideas are great, there are pitfalls and sucker-holes. We\u2019ll talk about tax deductions in general. We\u2019ll talk about last-minute tax moves. And Yes, we\u2019ll talk about automobiles.

Remember, there is <strong>no such thing as an accounting emergency<\/strong>; only poor planning.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Franchise_or_Business_Tax\"><\/span>Franchise or Business Tax<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>California is an easy target, but there are several other states which impose a franchise tax or some sort of \u201cpleasure to do business in our state\u201d tax. Additionally, these taxes are similar to income taxes where they must be paid quarterly in advance otherwise underpayment penalties and interest might be incurred.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Pass-Through_Entity_Tax_PTET\"><\/span>Pass-Through Entity Tax (PTET)<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-25944\" src=\"https:\/\/wcginc.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/year-end1.webp\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" \/>PTET in a nutshell is the ability to pay your \u201chuman\u201d state income taxes with business funds and thereby create a tax deduction for the business and eventually you as the owner. We discuss this in greater detail later. For now, there are\u00a0<strong>two possible PTET dangers here<\/strong> so please pay attention- first, if 2026 is the first year of your pass-through entity such as an S corporation or partnership, and you want to participate in your state\u2019s PTET program, then business tax planning is a must. Payments must be made on time (April, June, September, December) and in some cases, a timely registration and election must be made. For example, if you don&#8217;t register or &#8220;elect in&#8221; for New York by March 15, then you are out of luck for all of 2026 (there is some legislation that might extend this for New Yorkers to September 15).<\/p>\n<p>Second, if 2026 is going to be more profitable than 2025, then your PTET payments need to be increased to prevent underpayment penalties and interest. For example, you converted from W-2 to 1099 contractor in the summer of 2025, and 2026 is going to be the first full-year with your new contractor status, a business tax plan needs to be updated to account for your increased 2026 PTET payments (and likely your franchise tax or business tax imposed by the state).<\/p>\n<p>With the passage of the <a href=\"https:\/\/wcginc.com\/blog\/one-big-beautiful-bill-obbb\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">One Big Beautiful Bill Act<\/a> on July 4, 2025, the state and local tax limit is now $40,000 for those households with $500,000 or less in income. Above that, it phases down to $10,000. We mention this because the PTET deduction remains valuable for many business owners with S Corps and partnerships.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Payroll_Processing\"><\/span>Payroll Processing<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>If your business profit will jump up in 2026 as compared to 2025, then we must adjust your reasonable salary to accommodate for this change. More importantly, we must adjust your federal and state income tax withholdings. If we wait until tax planning season (May, June, July), two bad things happen- first, you get used to this new cash flow and start spending it, and second, the compression of waiting too long makes catching up painful.<\/p>\n<p>Sooner than later is the motto.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"January_Business_Tax_Planning\"><\/span>January Business Tax Planning<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>January is a great time to update your 2026 business tax plan, but only if there is a material difference between 2025 and 2026. If you call up and say, \u201chey, my business is going to be up 5%, can I get an updated business tax plan?\u201d We will say \u201cYes, absolutely\u2026 but let\u2019s wait until summer.\u201d <strong>January business tax planning is very compressed, and therefore we kindly want to reserve it for those who truly need it.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Otherwise, if you are curious about your Q1 or Q2 franchise or business tax, or your PTET payment,\u00a0<strong>please use 2025 as a proxy for 2026 until we can tweak <\/strong>with an updated business tax plan in the summer.<\/p>\n<p>Here is a

In other words, if you go from $100,000 to $200,000 in household income, you will pay way more than double in taxes (you could easily see 2.5 to 3.0 times more). Yuck!

When you write a check and it has a tax savings element (401k, IRA, charity, etc.) it is not a dollar-for-dollar savings. For example, if you are in the 22% marginal tax bracket, you must write a check for $4,000 just to save $880 in taxes. Keep this in mind as you read this information on year-end tax savings. Also keep in mind that cash is king, and that perhaps paying a few more taxes today with the added flexibility of cash in the bank can be comforting.<\/p>\n<p>Another way to look at it is this- most people say \u201cI want to save taxes\u201d but really what they are saying is \u201cI want to save cash.\u201d In other words,\u00a0<strong>most people are in the cash-saving business<\/strong>\u00a0not the tax-saving business. If we can do both, great. However, most tax-savings moves take cash, and cash is what you want to keep. So, keep this concept in mind as review some of the year-end tax moves listed below.<\/p>\n<p>Also!<\/p>\n<p>Tax deductions and tax deferrals are not the same. Tax deferrals are tax bombs later in life; little IOU\u2019s to the IRS and they will eventually call in the chit. But if you use the immediate tax savings to build wealth, then a tax deferral is worth it. Deferring taxes to pay for a cruise vacation might not always be the best approach (then again, live a little!).<\/p>\n<p>Wait, there\u2019s more!<\/p>\n<p>Just because you go $1 into the next tax bracket does not mean all your dollars are taxed at that rate. So, if you are trying to thread the needle with a Roth conversion to not fly too close to the sun out of fear of blowing up your tax world, don\u2019t sweat it too much. Sure, if you push $25,000 into the 32% marginal tax bracket when you could have delayed until next year,\u00a0<strong>that is an 8% x $25,000 or a $2,000 mistake<\/strong>.

We agree that a part of wealth building includes tax savings, but be careful not to sacrifice wealth for the thrill of a tax deduction (or deferral). Here is an example- let\u2019s say you stuff all your available cash into a tax-advantaged retirement account such a 401k. A few years go by and a great rental property comes on the market but your cash is all tied up in a 401k.

If you push this bonus in 2026, it might be taxed at a lower tax rate if your business or work productivity returns to a normal orbit. Don\u2019t confuse bonus withholdings versus tax- many companies will over-withhold on bonuses intentionally, but that doesn\u2019t mean you are taxed differently.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Second_Example\"><\/span>Second Example<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>You had a bang-up year just like the example above. Do you perform that <a href=\"https:\/\/wcginc.com\/kb-rental-property\/cost-segregation-study\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">cost segregation study<\/a> on your short-term rental property this year, or next? It depends, right? If 2026 is going to have more taxable income than 2025, then perhaps you wait. Alternatively, if you have plans to add more rentals in 2026 because interest rates are decreasing and the real estate market is loosening up a bit, then perhaps 2026 is protected with these new rentals and a cost segregation study applied to 2025 makes sense.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\"><span style=\"color: #ab9157;\"><strong>Sidebar:<\/strong><\/span> If 2025 is the only your rental property will qualify for the <a href=\"https:\/\/wcginc.com\/kb-rental-property\/short-term-rental-str-loophole\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">short-term rental loophole<\/a> (for example, you won&#8217;t materially participate in 2026), then you don&#8217;t really have a choice- cost seg now and deduct.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Third_Example\"><\/span>Third Example<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>2025 was a good year, but 2026 is going to be much better.

This is commonly referred to as SALT deductions (State And Local Tax). People commonly say SALT deductions and property taxes. Property taxes are inclusive of state and local tax\u2026 it is like saying drugs and alcohol. Alcohol is a drug. SALT deductions include all taxes imposed by your state or local jurisdiction. This was defined as such by the Revenue Act of 1913 and later clarified in 1964. Riveting. But somehow we\u2019ve managed to say SALT deductions and property taxes as separate items. At least it is not as bad as saying ATM Machine or ABS Brakes. Who says that? We digress\u2026<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-25949\" src=\"https:\/\/wcginc.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/year-end2.webp\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" \/>The Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017, back when Despacito was the big hit, limited the amount of SALT deductions on Schedule A of your Form 1040 (individual tax return) to $10,000. With the passage of the One Big Beautiful Bill, SALT is now up to $40,000 for those married tax filers with $500,000 or less in adjusted gross income (AGI). Therefore, if you have property taxes of $15,000 and California income tax of $30,000, you are only able to deduct $40,000 of this $45,000. This leaves $5,000 on the table, or about $1,200 if you are in the 24% marginal tax bracket.<\/p>\n<p>This example is not uncommon since for you to have $30,000 in California income tax, the household would have about $400,000 in taxable income. But if your household income is suddenly $600,000, then your SALT limit is $10,000 (yeah, quite the cliff) and your California tax might be $49,000ish. So, suddenly PTET and great SALT work around are back in business.<\/p>\n<p>As alluded to, there is a work-around for business owners of S Corporations and Partnerships, or what we call pass-through entities or PTEs. About 37 states are allowing business owners to make a tax payment to the state based on net business income. This does two things-<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>first, it reduces the amount of business income subject to federal income tax (your ultimate tax deduction), and<\/li>\n<li>second, the state provides a credit for this amount and reduces your state income tax calculation on your Form 1040 (some states don\u2019t provide a direct tax credit, but rather decrease your taxable income by the amount of business profits\u2026 Georgia does this, for example, and you arrive at the same spot as a tax credit).<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The IRS took note of the workaround, but understood it was perfectly legit. The IRS through\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.irs.gov\/pub\/irs-drop\/n-20-75.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Notice 2020-75<\/a>\u00a0states,<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>Certain jurisdictions described in section 164(b)(2) have enacted, or are contemplating the enactment of, tax laws that impose either a mandatory or elective entity-level income tax on partnerships and S corporations that do business in the jurisdiction or have income derived from or connected with sources within the jurisdiction. In certain instances, the jurisdiction\u2019s tax law provides a corresponding or offsetting, owner-level tax benefit, such as a full or partial credit, deduction, or exclusion.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>The IRS continues by stating this practice is permitted under the notice until it can legislate this practice into regulations. Also, there are all kinds of rules, and not every business owner will benefit from making a pass-through entity tax election. As such, the tax planning for determining the efficacy of using this tax deduction is challenging.<\/p>\n<p>Wow. That was a lot of gibberish, huh? Talk to your favorite tax pro at\u00a0<strong>WCG CPAs &amp; Advisors<\/strong>, and make sure you understand this amazing workaround for tax deductions being truncated by SALT limits. The cocktail party fodder term is \u201cPTET election\u201d or \u201cSALT workaround,\u201d where PTET stands for pass-through entity tax. There are some devils in the details, and not all states work the same. Yes, we are as surprised as you are.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t<style><\/style>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t[vc_row_inner content_placement=&#8221;middle&#8221; el_class=&#8221;client-review-secs box&#8211;card&#8221; woodmart_css_id=&#8221;672e712482714&#8243; responsive_spacing=&#8221;eyJwYXJhbV90eXBlIjoid29vZG1hcnRfcmVzcG9uc2l2ZV9zcGFjaW5nIiwic2VsZWN0b3JfaWQiOiI2NzJlNzEyNDgyNzE0Iiwic2hvcnRjb2RlIjoidmNfcm93X2lubmVyIiwiZGF0YSI6eyJ0YWJsZXQiOnt9LCJtb2JpbGUiOnt9fX0=&#8221; mobile_bg_img_hidden=&#8221;no&#8221; tablet_bg_img_hidden=&#8221;no&#8221; woodmart_parallax=&#8221;0&#8243; woodmart_gradient_switch=&#8221;no&#8221; woodmart_box_shadow=&#8221;no&#8221; wd_z_index=&#8221;no&#8221; woodmart_disable_overflow=&#8221;0&#8243; row_reverse_mobile=&#8221;0&#8243; row_reverse_tablet=&#8221;0&#8243;][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/3&#8243; woodmart_css_id=&#8221;671780b35b49a&#8221; parallax_scroll=&#8221;no&#8221; woodmart_sticky_column=&#8221;false&#8221; wd_collapsible_content_switcher=&#8221;no&#8221; wd_column_role_offcanvas_desktop=&#8221;no&#8221; wd_column_role_offcanvas_tablet=&#8221;no&#8221; wd_column_role_offcanvas_mobile=&#8221;no&#8221; wd_column_role_content_desktop=&#8221;no&#8221; wd_column_role_content_tablet=&#8221;no&#8221; wd_column_role_content_mobile=&#8221;no&#8221; mobile_bg_img_hidden=&#8221;no&#8221; tablet_bg_img_hidden=&#8221;no&#8221; woodmart_parallax=&#8221;0&#8243; woodmart_box_shadow=&#8221;no&#8221; responsive_spacing=&#8221;eyJwYXJhbV90eXBlIjoid29vZG1hcnRfcmVzcG9uc2l2ZV9zcGFjaW5nIiwic2VsZWN0b3JfaWQiOiI2NzE3ODBiMzViNDlhIiwic2hvcnRjb2RlIjoidmNfY29sdW1uX2lubmVyIiwiZGF0YSI6eyJ0YWJsZXQiOnt9LCJtb2JpbGUiOnt9fX0=&#8221; wd_z_index=&#8221;no&#8221;]\t\t<div id=\"wd-685ee34e6bbef\" class=\"wd-image wd-wpb wd-rs-685ee34e6bbef text-left \">\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" width=\"622\" height=\"622\" src=\"https:\/\/wcginc.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Entity-Tax-Deduction.jpg\" class=\"attachment-full size-full\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/wcginc.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Entity-Tax-Deduction.jpg 622w, https:\/\/wcginc.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Entity-Tax-Deduction-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/wcginc.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Entity-Tax-Deduction-150x150.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 622px) 100vw, 622px\" \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t[\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;2\/3&#8243; woodmart_css_id=&#8221;671780c0415fb&#8221; parallax_scroll=&#8221;no&#8221; woodmart_sticky_column=&#8221;false&#8221; wd_collapsible_content_switcher=&#8221;no&#8221; wd_column_role_offcanvas_desktop=&#8221;no&#8221; wd_column_role_offcanvas_tablet=&#8221;no&#8221; wd_column_role_offcanvas_mobile=&#8221;no&#8221; wd_column_role_content_desktop=&#8221;no&#8221; wd_column_role_content_tablet=&#8221;no&#8221; wd_column_role_content_mobile=&#8221;no&#8221; mobile_bg_img_hidden=&#8221;no&#8221; tablet_bg_img_hidden=&#8221;no&#8221; woodmart_parallax=&#8221;0&#8243; woodmart_box_shadow=&#8221;no&#8221; responsive_spacing=&#8221;eyJwYXJhbV90eXBlIjoid29vZG1hcnRfcmVzcG9uc2l2ZV9zcGFjaW5nIiwic2VsZWN0b3JfaWQiOiI2NzE3ODBjMDQxNWZiIiwic2hvcnRjb2RlIjoidmNfY29sdW1uX2lubmVyIiwiZGF0YSI6eyJ0YWJsZXQiOnt9LCJtb2JpbGUiOnt9fX0=&#8221; wd_z_index=&#8221;no&#8221;]\t\t\t<div class=\"info-box-wrapper\">\n\t\t\t\t<div id=\"wd-69081f9468483\" class=\" wd-rs-69081f9468483 wd-info-box wd-wpb text-left box-icon-align-top box-style- color-scheme- wd-bg-none with-btn box-btn-static \">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"info-box-content\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<h4 class=\"info-box-title title wd-font-weight-800 box-title-style-default font-primary wd-fontsize-m\">Pass-Through Entity Tax Deduction<\/h4>\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"info-box-inner reset-last-child\"><p>Read our blog post on the pass-through entity deduction for some additional information.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"info-btn-wrapper\"><div id=\"wd-6a3191e791750\" class=\"  wd-button-wrapper text-left\"><a href=\"\/blog\/pass-through-entity-tax-deduction\/\" title=\"\" class=\"btn btn-style-default btn-shape-rectangle btn-size-default\">Learn More<\/a><\/div><\/div>\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t<style><\/style>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t[\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner]\t\t\t<div class=\"info-box-wrapper\">\n\t\t\t\t<div id=\"wd-6908334a15ab7\" class=\" wd-rs-6908334a15ab7 wd-info-box wd-wpb text-left box-icon-align-top box-style- color-scheme- wd-bg-none border-btm-title \">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"info-box-content\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"info-box-title title wd-font-weight-800 box-title-style-default font-primary wd-fontsize-m\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Short-Term_Rental_Loophole\"><\/span>Short-Term Rental Loophole<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"info-box-inner reset-last-child\"><p>This topic bears special treatment.

While technically you only need one guest stay, having at least two to obtain a true average is best. As such, you better get than STR online by the first week of December. Next,<\/li>\n<li>You must <a href=\"https:\/\/wcginc.com\/kb-rental-property\/material-participation-rules\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">materially participate<\/a> otherwise your rental losses are considered passive, and therefore not deductible. 500 hours test is nearly impossible between October and November. 100 hours, and no one did more than you test is do-able. Most real estate investors use the substantially all test. Keep this in mind as the days tick off heading towards December 31. Next,<\/li>\n<li>You likely need a <a href=\"https:\/\/wcginc.com\/kb-rental-property\/cost-segregation-study\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">cost segregation study<\/a> to <a href=\"https:\/\/wcginc.com\/kb-rental-property\/accelerated-depreciation-and-section-179-deduction\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">accelerate your depreciation<\/a> with bonus depreciation. This is not too hard, and you can easily wait until tax time to knock this out. Next,<\/li>\n<li>Purchase a short-term rental because it is a good investment. As we&#8217;ve said throughout the article, build wealth first, and tax deduct second. If you find an STR and do all the things, and at the end of it all you have a crappy rental that is upside down each month by a mile, what have you done to yourself? You&#8217;ve boxed yourself in because you chased a good tax deduction predicated upon a lousy investment. Don&#8217;t have tax FOMO (as we talked about).<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Purchasing a short-term rental can easily yield $100,000 to $150,000 tax deduction- but know the rules and do it right.

At some point, long ago, in a galaxy far far away, businesses could buy heavy trucks such as pickup trucks and Hummers and deduct them 100%. Was this a loophole of sorts? Yes. Does Congress and the IRS like loopholes? No, not really, unless it benefits them. Oh well, this loophole must benefit them because 100% bonus depreciation is back for 2025.<\/p>\n<p>How does this work?<\/p>\n<p>For heavy vehicles, those with a gross vehicle weight of over 6,000 pounds, you can deduct the first $31,300 of the cost in 2025 under Section 179. Next, you deduct the remaining amount using 100% bonus depreciation. When bonus was 80% in 2023 and 60% in 2024, you would do Section 179 first, bonus second and first-year typical depreciation next, for a total first year tax deduction. For 2025 through 2030, this last step is no longer needed.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\"><span style=\"color: #ab9157;\"><strong>Sidebar:<\/strong><\/span> Vehicles are considered listed property under <a href=\"https:\/\/www.law.cornell.edu\/uscode\/text\/26\/280F\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">IRC Section 280F<\/a>, which means business use must exceed 50% to snag Section 179 or bonus depreciation. Drop to 50% or below, and Section 179 gets recaptured (ouch). Bonus depreciation can get clawed back too, but typically it\u2019s less painful since it\u2019s recalculated as straight-line depreciation.<\/p>\n<p>The problem remains with luxury passenger vehicles weighing under 6,000 pounds. Those limits are $20,200 for the first year using bonus depreciation, or $12,200 if you elect out (so, an $8,000 delta). Some luxury passenger vehicles weigh over 6,000 pounds and therefore are considered heavy vehicles. For example, the new 2025 Porsche Cayenne has a gross vehicle weight rating of 6,239 to 6,470 pounds, and is totally sexy.<\/p>\n<p>Having said all this, buy a business vehicle because it makes operational sense (or at least has a purpose). We don\u2019t buy vehicles solely for the tax deduction benefit. You are still parting with cash.

You could donate $14,000 each year with no additional tax benefit (Yes, the state might give some) since you would be using the standard deduction versus an itemized deduction ($31,500 vs. $17,000) on Schedule A.

Speaking of liking cash: sell some of your profitable stocks along with your dogs. Not literally your dogs, but your under-performing securities. Sell enough to create a $3,000 gain and sell some more to add a $6,000 loss, and presto! You\u2019ve pulled out some cash, yay, and created a $3,000 loss and tax deduction.<\/p>\n<p>Here is another variant to the above year-end tax move: you sell securities whose price is stable yet is lower than what you paid. You use these losses to reduce the capital gains on securities you sold previously (profit harvesting). You wait 30 days to prevent wash sale triggers and re-purchase the securities that were sold at a loss (only if you believe it will eventually rebound in a timeframe that makes sense given inflation and other economic conditions).<\/p>\n<p>Given market conditions now, this is a strong year-end strategy.

Buckle up\u2026 A question we entertain almost daily is \u201cI want to save taxes. Should I have the company buy me a car?\u201d Our auto-attendant replies with, \u201cDo you need a car?\u201d If you answer with \u201cYes\u201d the auto-attendant replies with, \u201cHold please.\u201d If your \u201cYes\u201d is not quick or mumbled, or if there is any recognition of hesitation, the auto-attendant is unhappy and will send you to our call center in Hawaii.<\/p>\n<p>We digress. There are\u00a0<strong>only a few questions you need to ask yourself when considering a car purchase<\/strong>. Are you the type of person who buys new? How long do you typically keep your cars? Is the car 100% business use? How many miles do you plan to drive? There is a decision tree you can review on our website (see below). Back up for a bit. Remember our previous discussions about tax deductions, and how only a fraction of the money you spend is returned to you? So, back to our auto-attendant, \u201cDo you need a car?\u201d If the answer is \u201cYes\u201d because your bucket of bolts is getting exceedingly dangerous, then Yes, buy a much-needed car out of a sense of safety. If the answer is \u201cNot really, but I want to save taxes,\u201d then don\u2019t. Two rules to live by-<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Cash is King (keep it!)<\/li>\n<li>Depreciation is a tax deferral not a tax avoidance system (typically)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>There might be some other external forces at play. For example, if you need a car next year but your income is ridiculously and unusually high in the current tax year, then reducing your income now makes sense. Again, tax modeling and planning is critical.<\/p>\n<p>We leave room for the \u201cI just wanna new car for no real reason since needs and wants occupy the same space in my brain.\u201d Live life.

Huh? When you sell or dispose of an asset, you might have to pay tax on the portion that was depreciated.<\/p>\n<p>For example, you buy a $200,000 piece of machinery and use<strong>\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.section179.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Section 179 depreciation<\/a><\/strong>\u00a0to deduct the entire $200,000 in the first year. Five years later you sell the equipment for $150,000 because you slapped some new paint on it and you are a shrewd negotiator with your buyer. You will now have to recognize $150,000 of taxable ordinary income. Yuck. But there is a silver lining- depreciation recapture is taxed at your marginal tax rate. So, if are going to have a low income year and you were planning on selling the machinery anyway, you could have depreciated your asset during 37% marginal tax rate years just to pay it all back at a much lower rate. Bonus! Tax planning is a must. How many times have we mentioned that?<\/p>\n<p>For investment and rental property owners, there is an added bonus to depreciation recapture. It is capped at 25% regardless of your marginal tax rate. You can also kick this depreciation recapture can down the road with a\u00a0<strong><a href=\"\/kb-rental-property\/1031-like-kind-exchange\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Section 1031 exchange<\/a>\u00a0<\/strong>(also referred to as a like-kind exchange). A Section 1031 like-kind xchange in most situations allows the deferral of depreciation recapture and capital gains by purchasing another investment property. And if you think you know what a 1031 like-kind exchange is, try learning about a reverse 1031 exchange- where you buy the replacement property first. Yup. It exists.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t<style><\/style>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"info-box-wrapper\">\n\t\t\t\t<div id=\"wd-674fe6d9d9946\" class=\" wd-rs-674fe6d9d9946 wd-info-box wd-wpb text-left box-icon-align-top box-style- color-scheme- wd-bg-none border-btm-title \">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"info-box-content\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"info-box-title title wd-font-weight-800 box-title-style-default font-primary wd-fontsize-m\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Income_Shifting\"><\/span>Income Shifting<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"info-box-inner reset-last-child\"><p>This one gets a little tricky.

But there are provisions that if the tenant breaks the lease within three years, you have to pay some of the $10,000 back. Accountants would call this \u201cUnearned Revenue\u201d and we can kick this revenue into the subsequent years. So if you collect money today and there is a bona fide chance you might lose it, then perhaps you should consider accrual based accounting and defer some of this income.
