What is IRS Section 179?

Section 179 Tax Deduction for 2022

The IRS wants YOU to SAVE on Dental Equipment this Year!

Essentially, Section 179 of the IRS tax code allows businesses to deduct the full purchase price of qualifying equipment and/or software purchased or financed during the tax year. This deduction is good on new and used equipment, as well as off-the-shelf software. That means that if you buy (or lease) a piece of qualifying equipment, you can deduct the FULL PURCHASE PRICE from your gross income. It’s an incentive created by the U.S. government to encourage businesses to buy equipment and invest in themselves.

For 2022, the maximum amount you may elect to deduct is $1,080,000 on qualifying property purchased and placed into service during the 2022 tax year. If your purchases exceed $2.7 million, the deduction amount will be reduced dollar for dollar equal to the amount over $2.7 million.
