AXIS Teams Up with Key Equipment Leasing – Take advantage of temporary tax breaks

Fast track your business to success

Combine all the benefits of accelerated write-offs for your qualifying IT equipment purchases provided by these temporary tax breaks with the enhanced flexibility that comes from financing with Key Equipment Finance.

Section 179: Recently increased for 2008

For tax purposes, the IRS Code Section 179 provides accelerated write-offs for capital expenses. Businesses purchasing $800,000 or less in capital equipment during 2008 can deduct up to $250,000 of that expense immediately on their 2008 tax return. Therefore managing your purchases this year is critical.  Key Equipment loans and non-tax leases can keep you in the driver’s seat by letting you retain tax ownership of your equipment so that you can use the Section 179 write-off to your advantage.

Enjoy tax advantages for equipment acquisitions exceeding $800,000

If your 2008 budget requires more than $800,000 in capital equipment investment, you’ll need to manage the tax ownership of those assets in order to maintain your Section 179 write-off. By using the Key Accelerator Lease to finance assets over $800,000, Key Equipment Finance becomes the tax owner of the equipment, which also enables you to take advantage of special pricing resulting from limited-time 50% bonus depreciation. Therefore you can trade in unused tax benefits for an overall lower financing cost on acquisitions over $800,000, while maintaining your Section 179 deduction on assets below that threshold.
