One of those is Section 179 of the US Tax Code. Print shops can take advantage of Section 179 for their capital purchases.<\/p>\n<h3>So how does it work?<\/h3>\n<p dir=\"auto\">As defined in <a title=\"section 179\" href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Section_179_depreciation_deduction\" target=\"_blank\">Wikipedia:<\/a><\/p>\n<p dir=\"auto\">&#8220;Section 179 of the United States Internal Revenue Code (26 U.S.C. \u00a7 179), allows a taxpayer to elect to deduct the cost of certain types of property on their income taxes as an expense, rather than requiring the cost of the property to be capitalized and depreciated. This property is generally limited to tangible, depreciable, personal property which is acquired by purchase for use in the active conduct of a trade or business.[1] Buildings were not eligible for section 179 deductions prior to the passage of the Small Business Jobs Act of 2010; however, qualified real property may be deducted now.[2]&#8221;<\/p>\n<p dir=\"auto\">So, if you need to purchase a UV Coating Machine, a new Roll Laminator, or a Round Corner Cutter, as examples, now is the time to do it before December 31, 2016. The amount you can spend is quite generous.<\/p>\n<h3>For example:<\/h3>\n<h2>Triumph 7260 Hydraulic Paper Cutter<\/h2>\n<p dir=\"auto\"><a href=\"https:\/\/lloydsofindiana.com\/Triumph-7260-Hydraulic-Paper-Cutter.html\" class=\"broken_link\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright\" src=\"https:\/\/customprintproducts.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/Triumph-Paper-Cutter.jpeg\" alt=\"Triumph Paper Cutter\" width=\"250\" height=\"232\" align=\"right\" \/><\/a>This is a great paper cutter. It\u2019s a 28-inch programmable\u00a0<strong>paper cutter<\/strong>\u00a0with hydraulic clamp, power back gauge, electronic control module, and IR safety light beams on the front table. You can cut stacks of paper and have a perfect cut. It\u2019s a high-cost cutter, but one of the best on the market.<\/p>\n<p>If you take advantage of Section 179, this is what it would look like for you:<\/p>\n<p><strong>Cost of Equipment:<\/strong>\u00a0$23,999.00<\/p>\n<p><strong>Section 179 Deduction:\u00a0<\/strong>$23,999.00<\/p>\n<p><strong>Bonus Depreciation Deduction:<\/strong>\u00a0$0<br \/>\n<em>(updated to 50% via PATH Act of 2015)<\/em><\/p>\n<p><strong>Normal 1st Year Depreciation:<\/strong>\u00a0$0<br \/>\n____________________________________________<\/p>\n<p><strong>Total First-Year Deduction:<\/strong>\u00a0$23,999.00<\/p>\n<p><strong>Cash Savings on your Purchase:<\/strong>\u00a0$8,399.65<\/p>\n<p><em>(assuming a 35% tax bracket)<\/em><\/p>\n<p><strong>Lowered Cost of Equipment: *$15,599.35<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Let\u2019s take a look at another example for your print shop, a UV coating machine:<\/p>\n<h2>Tec Lighting 16?
