Greetings!
Each November Americans commemorate the bounty of our nation and our lives with a special day called Thanksgiving. For some, Thanksgiving is all about the feast and football. For others, it is about capitalizing on Black Friday retail sales. For me, the holiday marks a perfect opportunity to take pause, think about the things for which I am thankful, and express my gratitude.
During this time of thanks, I want to extend my sincere appreciation to our customers for their loyalty and confidence, and to our employees for their hard work and dedication to service excellence. Without you, ABC's success would not be possible. Together, we have achieved many amazing things this past year. I feel very fortunate to work with, and provide services to, such great people.
Warm wishes for an abundant Thanksgiving and holiday season, 
Donavan Lane, CEO

| Tax Breaks Offered by Small Business Jobs Act for Software Purchased by December 31, 2010 | |
On September 27th, President Obama signed the Small Business Jobs Act of 2010 into law. The bill includes a series of provisions that benefit small businesses, most of which are effective immediately.
For example, the bill includes an extension of the 50% bonus depreciation provision for all businesses, regardless of size, that is effective for qualifying assets purchased in 2010. It also includes several other tax provisions targeted toward small businesses that would:
- Expand the one-year carry-back for general business credits to five years for sole proprietorships, partnerships, and non-publicly traded corporations with $50 million or less in gross receipts for the previous three years;
- Provide a 100% exclusion on gain from the sale of small business stock acquired after the date of enactment in 2010 and held for at least five years ; and
- Increase the Section 179 expensing limitation to $500,000 for 2010 and 2011.
For more information on the bill read about it here. Also consult your tax and legal advisors for specifics on how this bill might affect your business taxes in 2010. |
