What is Section 179?

Section 179 was designed to encourage businesses to invest in themselves by purchasing the equipment and technology they need to grow. Instead of depreciating the cost of equipment over several years, Section 179 lets you deduct the full cost in the year of purchase, up to the annual limit set by the IRS.

For 2025, the Section 179 deduction limit is $1,220,000, with a spending cap of $3,050,000. This makes it a valuable tool for contractors, utility companies, and drilling professionals looking to invest in productivity-boosting equipment before the end of the tax year.
