As we approach the end of the year, it’s essential to consider how your business investments can help you maximize tax savings. One of the best ways to reduce your tax burden is through the Section 179 tax deduction.

Understanding Section 179 for 2024
The IRS has set the maximum deduction for Section 179 at $1,220,000 for tax years beginning in 2024. This means that if your business purchases qualifying equipment during the year, you can deduct the full cost, up to this limit, from your taxable income. In addition, the total amount of equipment purchased cannot exceed $4,880,000. These limits are significant, especially for medical professionals and clinics looking to expand their capabilities with cutting-edge technology.

Does My Laser Qualify for Section 179?
A common question from business owners is whether specific medical devices, like lasers, qualify for the Section 179 tax deduction. The answer is a resounding yes—if your laser or other equipment is used for business purposes and meets the criteria set by the IRS, it qualifies for the deduction. Here are a few key factors to keep in mind:
- Use for Business: The device must be used more than 50% of the time for business purposes. If you’re purchasing a CO2Pro laser for your clinic, it easily fits within this guideline.
- Purchased and Put into Use in 2024: To claim the deduction for the 2024 tax year, the laser must be purchased and put into use by December 31, 2024.
- New or Used: Section 179 allows for the deduction of both new and used equipment, so even if you’re buying pre-owned equipment, it can still qualify.
How the CO2Pro Fits into Section 179
Let’s look at the numbers with AVANTA Medical’s CO2Pro laser, which is priced at $69,900. Under Section 179, you can deduct the full purchase price from your taxable income. Assuming your business is in the 35% tax bracket, here’s what you could save:
- CO2Pro Purchase Price: $69,900
- Potential Tax Savings (35% bracket): $24,465

How Much Can You Save?
Let’s break it down with another example:
If you purchase multiple AVANTA Medical devices totaling $150,000, under Section 179, you can deduct the entire amount from your taxable income.

Multiply these savings by investing in additional devices, and you’ll see how Section 179 can drastically reduce your tax burden.
