Finally made permanent last December by the PATH Act (Protecting Americans from Tax Hikes) of 2015, the research and development (R&D) tax credit study can bring a valuable but often overlooked tax opportunity to your business or CPA firm clients. R&D studies can help a company increase cash flow by generating tax credits for qualifying research and development expenses.
The webinar provides a high-level look at how businesses and CPA clients can lower their effective tax rate if their activities to develop new or improved products or processes qualify, including the taxpayer-friendly changes on how to utilize the credit as provided in the PATH Act’s provisions.
Identify new changes to utilization of the R&D tax credit provided by the PATH Act
Separate fact from myth about credit qualifications
Learn how to identify qualified versus non-qualified activities
Differentiate calculation method options and discuss examples

"We have been studying the Research and Development credit over the years for our client base. I have attended other presentations on this subject. This presentation was by far the best! It provided practical tools along with references and answered some of the questions I have had! Not just a another power point presentation. Thank you"Gerald, MO
"This webinar is probably the best spent 60 minutes you can have in learning R&D qualifications, credit amounts, elections, requirements, etc. If you have the opportunity, spend this hour, it may be substantial savings to your clients in areas you were not aware of. Gerald L. Williams, CPA, EA"Roger, TX
