1927: Financial Strategies Pt. 1

Mark Costes
About this episode

On today’s 2-part episode, we delve into the realms of taxation and financial strategies for dental professionals. In this episode, we're joined by Brent Saunier and Chris Sands, the founders of Profi 2020, Marks’ personal CPA firm. As regular contributors to the podcast, Brent and Chris offer their expert insights on taxation changes and strategies that could significantly impact dental practitioners.

One of the highlights of this episode is the discussion on the Tax Relief for American Families and Workers Act of 2024, a piece of legislation that could potentially extend 100% bonus depreciation through the end of 2025. This could mean significant tax savings for dental practitioners who have made or are planning to make substantial investments in their practices.

We also dive into the intricacies of cost segregation studies, a strategy that can lead to substantial tax deductions for those who own their dental practice buildings. Brent and Chris explain how these studies work, the potential benefits, and the importance of timing when making such investments.

The conversation takes a turn towards the practicalities of dealing with IRS audits, sharing insights from a recent audit experience and strategies for minimizing the risk of triggering an audit. They shed light on common red flags, including the home office deduction and the use of cars within the business.

For dental practitioners looking to optimize their tax strategies and navigate the complexities of IRS audits, this episode is packed with valuable information and actionable advice.
