Frequently Asked Questions About Section 179 in 2025
Financing & Payment Questions
A: Crest Capital’s Section 179 financing helps you maximize tax benefits while preserving cash flow. Our straightforward approach allows you to:
- Deduct qualifying equipment costs in the same tax year
- Make affordable monthly payments
- Earn $179 per $10k financed *request at application; restrictions apply
- Often receive same-day approval decisions
A: Not necessarily. If you know your bracket, use it for a more accurate estimate; otherwise, the default rate gives a quick projection. Keep in mind the calculator is illustrative only—consult your tax advisor for definitive figures and bracket confirmation.
A: Many businesses qualify with no money down, which preserves working capital. In certain scenarios—like limited credit history or specific financing terms—you may need a down payment. Crest Capital’s goal is to minimize upfront costs so you can finance equipment without hindrance.
A: Terms range from 24 to 84 months based on equipment type and your business's credit profile. Approvals typically come within one business day, letting you quickly secure equipment and capture Section 179 benefits for the current tax year.
A: We can finance the entire equipment cost or only a portion, depending on your preference. Even with partial financing, you can generally claim Section 179 on the total eligible purchase amount—as long as the equipment meets IRS requirements for business use.
Section 179 Tax Savings Questions
A: For 2025, businesses can deduct up to $1,250,000 in first-year equipment expenses. This lets you write off a significant amount immediately, instead of depreciating it over multiple years, greatly reducing your tax bill.
A: Bonus depreciation is 40% for 2025. It applies to qualified property after Section 179 limits are exhausted or when Section 179 isn't elected. Since Section 179 provides full expensing within its limits, bonus depreciation typically only matters for purchases above these thresholds.
A: The Section 179 deduction reduces dollar-for-dollar once total equipment purchases exceed $3,130,000 in 2025, reaching zero at $4,380,000. This limit targets benefits to small and mid-sized companies.
A: No IRS minimum exists. Any qualifying purchase is eligible if used over 50% for business. Note that lenders may have their own minimums - for example, Crest Capital requires $10,000 minimum financing.
A: Yes. Section 179 applies to both new and used equipment, provided the equipment meets IRS eligibility requirements. Consult your tax advisor about your specific situation.
A: Yes. Heavy vehicles over 6,000 lbs GVW generally qualify for Section 179, though specific limits apply based on vehicle type. Consult your tax advisor for limitations and eligibility.
A: All qualifying equipment must be purchased (or financed) and placed into service by December 31, 2025. Supply chain delays can extend shipping times, so apply early to ensure you meet the year-end cutoff.
A: Keep delivery receipts, installation records, and proof of business use showing the equipment was operational by December 31, 2025. Photos, logs, or timestamps of first use are helpful documentation for IRS verification.
