Green Tax Incentives Save Your Business While Saving The Planet by Wayne Hemrick
While the federal government may be dragging its heels on environmental issues,
California tax incentives aimed toward encouraging reduced energy consumption and cleaner, less polluting operation are allowing the Golden State to forge ahead. Green energy tax incentives – sometimes known as “eco credits” – can save California business owners and entrepreneurs considerably at tax time.
The term “eco credits” can be somewhat misleading; these are not actually “credits,” but deductions. Under California’s green energy tax incentives, you can deduct up to 40% of the cost of any energy-saving technology that you install in your place of business. For example, if you spend $1,000 installing solar panels, you can deduct $400 of that from your business tax bill for that year. This is just one of the many eco credits that may be available to you.
California energy credits are often overlooked even by savvy businessmen. It’s no surprise; as you well know, state and federal tax codes are anything but simple. It’s why you definitely want the services of a certified public accountant when it’s time to file who can help you understand which green tax incentives may apply to you and your business as well as how to best take advantage of them.
You may not know that California is actually leading the world when it comes to renewable methods of generating electric energy. The good people in Sacramento want to keep it that way, which is why California energy credits have been passed into law; these green tax incentives, which are combined with environmental regulations, have not only helped our native industries to prosper; they have resulted in a cleaner state. This way, California’s green tax incentives benefit everyone, not just those in business.
Certified public accountants are often portrayed as having a rather dull, unadventurous life. While the profession is not as glamorous as that of a cosmetic surgeon or a high-powered litigation lawyer however, neither of those professions would be nearly as profitable were it not for the CPA. When it comes to your business and California energy credits, you’ll find it to be very exciting when a CPA explains just how those green tax incentives can save you money that you can re-invest into your business and make it grow. Get in touch with a CPA today and find out how your state’s green tax incentives can benefit your bottom line.
