FAQ
Generally, when installing or repairing tangible personal property, parts and labor are taxable.
The basic idea of the ERC is that employers who retained employees during the pandemic can claim a tax credit for a portion of the employer share of Social Security tax. Under current regulations, employers can, for the first quarter of 2021, claim a credit rate of 70% (up to $10,000) of W-2 wages per employee.
Credit amount The total ERC benefit per employee can be up to $26,000 ($5,000 in 2020 and $7,000 per quarter in 2021).
Going forward, the only way to apply for the ERC is to file an amended Form 941X (Quarterly Federal Payroll Tax Return) for the quarters during which the company was an eligible employer.
While the ERC is technically not taxable income in and of itself, the ERC will still affect your payroll deductions. As an employer or business that receives the employee retention credit, you must reduce your payroll expense deduction by the amount of the ERC claimed.
The credit is equal to one dollar for each hour the qualified employee worked during the taxable year, up to 1,000 hours. The maximum tax credit available to a qualified taxpayer is $10,000 each year.
Capital Investment Tax Credit An annual credit may be claimed for up to 20 years in an annual amount up to 5% of the eligible capital costs generated by a qualifying project.
On Form 1120S, businesses can report the ERC by including it as a credit on Line 13f (“Credits”) of Schedule K, Form 1120S. Ensure accurate documentation of qualified wages and related expenses to support the credit claim.
Calculating credits for 2021 The ERC applies only to the first three financial quarters of 2021, and the eligible wages for each of these quarters are calculated at 70%. As such, the credit per employee per quarter maxes out at $7,000.
In addition to claiming tax credits for 2020, small businesses should consider their eligibility for the ERC in 2021. The ERC is now available for all four quarters of 2021, up to $7,000 per quarter.
