Greenhouse Expansion, Upgrades & Replacements
When Thinking About Building, What Section 179 Means For You
the Sky is the Limit!
Business Income With Or Without Bonus Depreciation
In this example, we will assume the following for a greenhouse operation:
GRIFFIN CONSTRUCTION & FABRICATION Taxable income: $1,000,000
Tax Rate (example): 30%
Equipment Purchased: $250,000
Without Bonus Depreciation (Straight-Line)
Typical depreciation method is straight-line over 5 years
Using this method, you only deduct 1/5 of the equipment cost this year
Deduction this year: $250,000 divided by 5 = $50,000
Grow Better. Build Smarter. Save More. New taxable income: $1,000,000 - $50,000 = $950,000
Tax owed: 30% x $950,000 = $285,000

aging structures, Griffin Construction is your full-service partner for smarter growing. We help
you build for the future—efficiently, affordably, and strategically. With 100% Bonus Depreciation
