As we get ready to bid farewell to 2024, there are several year-end moves your small business can consider to save on taxes. Here are some key tips to keep in mind: 💼 Estimated Taxes: Remember to make your last estimated tax payment to avoid penalties. The fourth quarter payment is due on January 15, 2025. 💰 QBI Deduction: You might be entitled to a deduction of up to 20% of your qualified business income (QBI) if you’re a taxpayer other than a corporation. 📈 Cash vs. Accrual Accounting: More small businesses now qualify to use the cash method of accounting for federal tax purposes instead of the accrual method. 🛠️ Section 179 Deduction: Consider making expenditures that qualify for the Section 179 expensing option. 🚀 Bonus Depreciation: For 2024, you can generally claim a 60% bonus first-year depreciation deduction for qualified improvement property and machinery and equipment purchased and placed in service this year. Taking these steps can help set your business up for a financially successful new year! Explore more in this article: https://bit.ly/4f4gcud #SmallBusiness #TaxTips #YearEndPlanning

Estate Planning Alert! 🛑 Pitfall #1: Not coordinating different plan aspects. From wills and power of attorney to trusts, retirement accounts, and life insurance policies, keep everything aligned. Don’t look at each one in a vacuum! 🛑 Pitfall #2: Failing to update beneficiary forms. Your will and trust may outline your wishes, but beneficiary forms on retirement plans, annuities, and life insurance policies can supersede these documents. Keep them updated! 🛑 Pitfall #3: Not properly funding trusts. Make sure your trusts, such as revocable living trusts, are funded properly to avoid probate and ensure privacy and efficiency. Explore these common estate planning mistakes and more and learn how to avoid them in our latest article. https://lnkd.in/gpS9yKuB #EstatePlanning #FinancialLiteracy #Trusts #Wills #BeneficiaryForms
