Farm And Agriculture Tax Expertise Neenah & Oshkosh Residents
As a sole tax preparer specializing in farm and agricultural taxes, I understand the challenges small farms face in managing finances and taxes. With my expertise, I help small farmers navigate agricultural taxation, ensuring they maximize tax benefits and stay compliant.
Common Tax Advantages for Farming
I assist small farms by identifying and leveraging tax deductions and credits specific to agriculture. Farmers can deduct expenses like equipment, seeds, fertilizers, and supplies. I also guide you through depreciating large assets such as machinery and buildings. These deductions can reduce taxable income, providing essential financial relief for small farmers.
Livestock and crop-related expenses present another area where I can help. Whether you raise livestock or grow crops, I can help identify deductible expenses such as feed, veterinary care, farm labor, and irrigation costs. There are also tax implications related to breeding and selling livestock, including the treatment of income from sales, depreciation of breeding stock, and tracking the costs associated with raising animals. I can help you track all these activities properly, ensuring that you report them correctly on your tax returns.
Another essential service I provide is helping you take advantage of specific agricultural tax credits, like the Section 179 deduction for the purchase of qualifying farm equipment or improvements. This deduction allows small farmers to expense certain equipment costs rather than depreciating them over several years, which can lead to immediate tax savings. Additionally, I assist in managing capital gains taxes when selling farm property or livestock. Selling farm assets, such as land or machinery, may have specific tax implications that I can help you navigate to minimize any potential tax burden.
Additionally, I help small farms with more complex situations such as Farm Income Averaging. This allows you to average out your income over the past three years, which can be especially beneficial if you’ve had a particularly high-income year. This reduces the chances of being pushed into a higher tax bracket in one year.
