SourceCorp announces the extension of the Energy Efficient “Green”
Building Tax Deduction and the two-year extension of the R&D Tax Credit.

Energy Efficient Commercial Building Tax Deduction
Extended through December 31, 2013. Section 179D(a) is a deduction for
commercial building owners whose buildings meet certain energy
standards. The deduction is as much as $1.80 per square foot for
buildings that achieve a 50 percent energy savings target. Before
claiming the deduction, the owner must obtain written certification from
a professional engineer not related to the company using approved
software that the required energy savings will be achieved.
Research and Development Tax Credit
The R&D tax credit was extended for two years through December 31, 2009.
If you are involved in developing new products/processes, improving
existing products, creating more reliable products, developing
prototypes, design tools/jigs/molds/dies, apply for patents, testing new
concepts, investment in manufacturing process activity, developing new
technology or employ outside consultants and/or contractors to do any of
these activities, you may qualify for the R&D Tax Credit.
