RESEARCH TAX CREDIT STUDIES

The Research Tax Credit (also known as Research & Development Tax Credit) is a general business credit established in 1981 to reward U.S. businesses of all sizes for investing in industry-specific innovations. The credit is available to all entities filing a federal tax return. At Sol Schwartz & Associates, our goal is to maximize your use of both federal and state tax credits and incentives to help your business remain competitive and contribute to the advancement of your particular industry.
