Section 179 Deduction | United States IRS Tax Code

Maximize Your Tax Savings with Section 179

Deduct up to $2,500,000 in equipment purchases in the year you buy. Put your cattle chute to work and write it off. Thanks to Section 179, businesses like yours can deduct the full purchase price of qualifying equipment, from cattle handling systems to zero-turn mowers, from your taxable income. Whether you’re running a ranch, mowing acreage, or outfitting your shop, this federal incentive can save you thousands. Here's how it works:

Who Qualifies?

• Any U.S.-based business that purchases and uses qualifying equipment in the same tax year

• Includes ranchers, landscapers, ag contractors, mowing service operators, and acreage owners

• Equipment must be used for more than 50% for business purposes

What Equipment Qualifies?

• Cattle chutes, alleys, tubs

• Portable corrals and handling systems

• Zero-turn mowers used for business (commercial mowing or large-acreage maintenance)

What You Can Save (Based on $20,000 Equipment Purchase):

Estimated Tax Bracket

22% - $4,400 in savings - $15,600 (cost after tax)

32% - $6,400 in savings - $13,600 (cost after tax)

35% - $7,000 in savings - $13,000 (cost after tax)

37% - $7,400 in savings - $12,600 (cost after tax)
