FPSA - Food Production Solutions Association’s FIT Program traveled to West Chicago for training at our partner’s, OSI Group, production facility. This plant is highly automated and has a variety of products which make it an excellent learning environment for our students. Not only did the students meet and learn from the management team but they also were able to meet a former FIT Student, now maintenance technician for OSI to learn about his experience transitioning from the lab to the workplace. Thank you Julie Yeary Sylvester and Jeff Felos for not only providing training but also so many fantastic career opportunities for our students.

R&D Tax Credits and Incentives for Qualifying Manufacturing Entities (Member Guest Blogger Eide Bailly LLP) https://lnkd.in/eu_j8cYc Key Takeaways - Manufacturers can see significant benefit from R&D tax credits for developing new or improving existing products and processes. - Recent changes, such as the amendment of Section 174, require the capitalization and amortization of research expenses, impacting tax liabilities. Businesses implementing new or existing manufacturing processes or developing or enhancing products may benefit from the R&D tax credit. The credit is a permanent benefit offered annually and is best claimed on an originally filed tax return, but can also be claimed on an amended tax return for open tax years. While the credit can fluctuate year-over-year, a company with $500,000 in qualified R&D costs during a tax year can typically see a benefit between $30,000 and $40,000. Many states also offer R&D credits or incentives, which can increase the available benefit to offset state taxes and may be refundable in certain states. Additionally, manufacturers may be able to utilize more R&D credit given the law change around Section 174 through the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (TCJA), as many companies are seeing temporarily increased tax liabilities from the requirement to capitalize and amortize R&D expenditures. Lawmakers have contemplated a legislative fix concerning the TCJA provisions on expensing research costs; however, a legislative fix is not anticipated until 2025.
