We have tons of work in R&D right now.

The Shawn Ryan Show
#267 Rob Luna - 50-Year Mortgages, Government Band-Aids, AI Job Cuts and the Middle Class

Everything from the products you buy to the big thing for people we talked about is labor costs.

The Shawn Ryan Show
#267 Rob Luna - 50-Year Mortgages, Government Band-Aids, AI Job Cuts and the Middle Class

The percentage of time that your people are spending on that, that can be associated towards this R&D credit.

The Shawn Ryan Show
#267 Rob Luna - 50-Year Mortgages, Government Band-Aids, AI Job Cuts and the Middle Class

There's no limit on that.

The Shawn Ryan Show
#267 Rob Luna - 50-Year Mortgages, Government Band-Aids, AI Job Cuts and the Middle Class

It's as much as you need to offset your taxes.

The Shawn Ryan Show
#267 Rob Luna - 50-Year Mortgages, Government Band-Aids, AI Job Cuts and the Middle Class

If you're just starting up and you're not profitable, the only thing you could really do is offset payroll taxes.

The Shawn Ryan Show
#267 Rob Luna - 50-Year Mortgages, Government Band-Aids, AI Job Cuts and the Middle Class

And there's a half a million dollar, I believe exemption there.

The Shawn Ryan Show
#267 Rob Luna - 50-Year Mortgages, Government Band-Aids, AI Job Cuts and the Middle Class

But what you'll see is a lot of what everyone's doing today, their time, what they're spending on does qualify for this.

The Shawn Ryan Show
#267 Rob Luna - 50-Year Mortgages, Government Band-Aids, AI Job Cuts and the Middle Class

A lot of people don't know about it.

The Shawn Ryan Show
#267 Rob Luna - 50-Year Mortgages, Government Band-Aids, AI Job Cuts and the Middle Class

Don't talk about it.

The Shawn Ryan Show
#267 Rob Luna - 50-Year Mortgages, Government Band-Aids, AI Job Cuts and the Middle Class

CPAs don't know how to do the work.

The Shawn Ryan Show
#267 Rob Luna - 50-Year Mortgages, Government Band-Aids, AI Job Cuts and the Middle Class

what you will see is you will save, you talk about how are we gonna save you some taxes?

The Shawn Ryan Show
#267 Rob Luna - 50-Year Mortgages, Government Band-Aids, AI Job Cuts and the Middle Class

R&D credits are huge because they're credits.

The Shawn Ryan Show
#267 Rob Luna - 50-Year Mortgages, Government Band-Aids, AI Job Cuts and the Middle Class

And the difference between, if you don't know, a tax deduction and a tax credit is a deduction, if you get $100,000 deduction for buying real estate, okay, what you get to write off is your own tax bracket.

The Shawn Ryan Show
#267 Rob Luna - 50-Year Mortgages, Government Band-Aids, AI Job Cuts and the Middle Class

So if you're at a 30% tax bracket,

The Shawn Ryan Show
#267 Rob Luna - 50-Year Mortgages, Government Band-Aids, AI Job Cuts and the Middle Class

You don't get to write $100,000 off the taxes you owe.

The Shawn Ryan Show
#267 Rob Luna - 50-Year Mortgages, Government Band-Aids, AI Job Cuts and the Middle Class

You get to write off $30,000 off the tax you owe.

The Shawn Ryan Show
#267 Rob Luna - 50-Year Mortgages, Government Band-Aids, AI Job Cuts and the Middle Class

$100,000 R&D tax credit, it's $100,000 to offset income.

The Shawn Ryan Show
#267 Rob Luna - 50-Year Mortgages, Government Band-Aids, AI Job Cuts and the Middle Class

So you get $100,000 of that.

And there's companies we're working with right now when you start taking the percentage of people's salary and the things that they spend in new locations, there's hundreds of thousands of dollars of tax credits that are now available that are reset back that people should be looking to those R&D tax credits.
