Here’s How Section 179 Can Put Money Back in Your Pocket
What is Section 179?
How Section 179 Helps Small to Medium Businesses
Whether you’re working in farming or construction, Section 179 can make a big difference:
Immediate Tax Savings
For example, purchasing a $60,000 skid steer could mean writing off the full amount in year one—saving you thousands at tax time.
Encourages Equipment Upgrades
Supports Business Growth
The cash you save on taxes can be reinvested in your business. That means hiring more workers, broadening operations, or purchasing additional equipment.
Flexible Across Industries
Why Section 179 Matters for Farmers & Contractors
For farmers, upgrading to a modern Kubota Tractor is groundbreaking for getting more work done in less time. For contractors, investing in a powerful skid steer or excavator can significantly improve jobsite productivity. Section 179 makes these purchases more affordable by lowering your taxable income.
