Accounting for used car dealers and new vehicle franchises can be complex. Polston tax helps dealerships navigate distinct accounting challenges and satisfy tax requirements.
Our experience with the Internal Revenue Service (IRS), generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), and numerous state tax codes enable us to curate an optimal accounting and tax strategy for your dealership. We can analyze your business to determine the most pragmatic revenue recognition strategies and expense reporting. With our support, you can confidently determine and report sales tax from various revenue streams. We also help to determine tax deduction opportunities for expenses like trade-in purchases and vehicle value depreciation.
Polston Tax can help you exercise the options available to you when the IRS or state tax commission claims your dealership owes money.
As a dealership or other business in the automotive industry, you may qualify for several credits. These incentives help you subtract from the money owed to support your business growth and success.
The federal government offers reductions like the Clean Vehicle Credit, an electric vehicle credit for sellers of new and used vehicles that qualify as clean. The investment credit consists of various energy projects and may include those in the automotive industry in some cases.
Dealerships and other auto businesses can also benefit from their employment practices. The Work Opportunity Tax Credit applies to companies that hire people from groups facing barriers to employment. Dealerships that qualify as small businesses can use the Small Business Healthcare Tax Credit if they offer a qualified plan from the Small Business Health Options Program Marketplace.
Automotive producers and designers may benefit from other reductions, such as an R&D credit for bringing new efficiencies to manufacturing, design and development processes.
State-specific automotive credits may include incentives for selling clean vehicles, like at the federal level. Other reductions include job creation incentives for automotive manufacturing in states like Georgia and South Carolina. If you research and develop clean energy automotive solutions, you may qualify for benefits. Certain states also have rewards for using advanced battery technologies in the automotive industry.
