Research & Experimentation Credit Study
As a manufacturer or producer, you should consider whether your business is eligible for significant federal and state tax credits. A number of businesses are revisiting the Research and Experimentation Credit and receiving significant tax benefits for doing so.

Study Benefits
The benefit of a research and experimentation study may uncover significant opportunities for reduction in what you pay in federal and state taxes and you may also be eligible for refunds of federal taxes for the recent year and also prior years that remain open to the filing of amended returns, plus the interest that may have accrued.

Costs that Qualify
There are different costs that qualify for the credit calculation. Wages, supply costs, outside consulting and computer programming costs in the development of a new process or product can qualify. These are all the costs incurred up until the time the product or process is ready for commercial production. The wages of all individuals that are involved in the conceptualization of the development of the new product or process are considered.

Value of the Study
Based on an average of the studies we have completed, the benefit to the companies exceeded $100,000. In addition, there are significant credit benefits for 2007.
