2026 - Section 179

Section 179 for Collision Shops
Tax year 2026 · Equipment, software & shop improvements

Buy the machine this year.
Deduct all of it this year.

Buy the machine this year. Deduct all of it this year — if it's running by December 31.

The July 2025 tax law made 100% first-year write-offs permanent and lifted the Section 179 ceiling to $2,560,000 for 2026. A spot welder, a pulse MIG, a lift, a scan tool — the whole purchase can come off this year's income instead of being spread across five.

Put your number in the box and see what the machine actually costs you.

119 days left in the 2026 tax year

What will it really cost?

Enter a price and your tax rate. Same arithmetic your accountant starts with.

Pass-through income lands on your personal return — use that bracket, not the corporate rate.

§179 ceiling — 2026 $2,560,000 Expensed in full, in year one. Up from $2,500,000 in 2025.
Phase-out begins at $4,090,000 Of total §179 property placed in service. No independent shop is near this.
Bonus depreciation 100% Permanent for qualified property acquired after Jan 19, 2025. The phase-down is dead.
Timing

The deduction follows the calendar, not the invoice.

Qualifying property has to be placed in service by December 31 to count for this tax year — installed, powered and available to do work, not ordered or paid for. Here's the run-in.

119 days until Dec 31
Gone Today Deadline

Order against a 10–14 week factory lead time in late November and the deduction lands in 2027. Equipment already on a floor in the United States is what makes the date achievable this late.

Gate 1 — acquired

You've committed to buy it

A signed order, a binding contract, a deposit. The easy gate — and the one most people think is the whole test. A purchase order dated December 28 doesn't do it on its own, and neither does a wire that clears on the 30th.

Gate 2 — placed in service

It's in your shop, installed, and ready to work

Delivered, wired to the right voltage, coolant in it, arms on it, available for use in your business on or before December 31. The electrical is the step that slips most often — book the electrician the day you order, not the day the crate lands.

What actually changed

Three provisions. One effect: the government funds a slice of your equipment purchase.

These are the code sections your accountant will name. Worth knowing them before the conversation, so you're not nodding along.

IRC §179 — Expensing

Lets you elect to treat the cost of qualifying equipment and off-the-shelf software as an expense rather than a capital asset you depreciate slowly. The 2026 ceiling is $2,560,000, reduced dollar-for-dollar once you place more than $4,090,000 of such property in service.

The limit that actually bites: §179 can't exceed your taxable business income. It cannot create a loss. Anything over the line carries forward.

IRC §168(k) — Bonus depreciation

The scheduled phase-down to 40% was reversed. Qualified property acquired and placed in service after January 19, 2025 gets the full 100% special depreciation allowance, and it's permanent now rather than sunsetting.

The difference that matters: unlike §179, bonus depreciation is not capped by business income — it can push you into a loss. Which is exactly why the two get applied in a specific order.

IRC §163(j) — Interest

The cap on deducting business interest went back to an EBITDA basis instead of EBIT. In plain English: depreciation no longer eats into the interest you're allowed to write off, so financing a machine costs less after tax than it did.

And most shops are exempt anyway: if your average annual gross receipts over the prior three years are under $32,000,000 for 2026, the interest limitation doesn't apply to you at all.

Scope

What qualifies in a collision shop — and what quietly doesn't.

Broader than most owners assume on the left; narrower than most hope on the right. Your CPA makes the final call on every line.

Generally qualifies
  • Welding equipmentResistance spot welders, MIG and pulse MIG, rivet and SPR guns, plasma cutters.
  • Dent pulling & inductionPullers, studders, induction heaters, glue-pull systems.
  • Lifts & frameTwo-post and scissor lifts, benches, frame racks, measuring, anchoring.
  • Diagnostics & ADASScan tools, calibration frames and targets, alignment.
  • Paint & refinishPrep stations, curing lamps, mixing equipment.
  • Shop infrastructureCompressors, extraction, A/C service machines, battery charging.
  • Off-the-shelf softwareShop management, estimating, purchased licences.
  • Used & refurbished equipment§179 has always allowed it, and bonus depreciation does too — as long as it's new to you.
  • Improvements to the building you work inHVAC, roofs and qualified interior improvements to non-residential property.
Watch out for
  • The building and the land itselfThe structure isn't §179 property. Specific improvements to it can be.
  • Inventory and parts you resellThat's cost of goods — a different deduction entirely.
  • Anything bought from a related partyA machine from your brother's shop, or from your own second entity, can be disqualified.
  • Mixed personal useOnly the business-use share counts, and dropping below 50% triggers recapture.
  • VehiclesTheir own rulebook. SUVs are capped at $32,000 under §179 for 2026, and a dedicated service truck is a different conversation than a Tahoe.
  • Property used outside the United StatesGenerally excluded.
  • Selling or scrapping it earlyRecapture — the one that surprises people two years later.
How the two interact

§179 and bonus depreciation aren't a choice. They're a sequence.

A common misconception is that you pick one. In practice your accountant applies them in order, and the order changes the answer.

1

§179 goes first, selectively

Applied asset by asset, up to the ceiling, capped at taxable business income. Because it's elective per asset, it usually gets pointed at the property with the longest recovery period — the stuff that would otherwise take the most years to write off.

2

Bonus depreciation sweeps the rest

100% of whatever basis is left on qualified property. No income cap, so this is the piece that can create or deepen a loss — sometimes deliberately, sometimes to be avoided. It applies automatically unless you elect out.

3

Regular depreciation cleans up

Anything not expensed depreciates normally under MACRS over its class life. Most collision shop equipment lands in the 5- or 7-year class.

The honest downside nobody sells you

Writing off 100% in year one means there's no depreciation left for the next five. If you expect a much better year — or a higher bracket — in 2028 than in 2026, that deduction is worth more later than it is now. A good accountant will sometimes tell you to take less than you're entitled to, and they'll be right. Have that conversation before you sign, not after.

Two questions we get every December

Financing, leasing, and the machine you're replacing.

Buy, finance, or lease

Financing doesn't reduce the deduction. The write-off follows the cost of the asset you placed in service, not how much of the note you've paid down. A machine bought in December on 60-month terms is generally deductible on the same basis as one paid for in cash — small cash outlay, full-year deduction.

Leases are where it gets specific. A capital or finance lease with a nominal buyout is typically treated as a purchase and qualifies. A true operating lease usually doesn't — you deduct the payments as rent instead, which is a real deduction, just a different one. The lease document decides this, not the salesperson. Put it in front of your CPA before you sign.

Where to start. We work with Innovative Capital Corp, an independent third-party financing provider — CRTE is not the lender. The application is short and the approval comes back fast, which matters when the calendar is the constraint.

Trading in your old machine

Since the 2017 tax act, like-kind exchange treatment applies only to real property. Equipment trade-ins are no longer tax-deferred.

So a trade is really two events: you sold the old machine and you bought a new one. If the old unit was already fully depreciated, the trade value can come back as ordinary income through depreciation recapture — even though no cash changed hands and it felt like a discount.

That's not a reason to avoid a trade. It's a reason to know the number before you agree to it. We put trade figures in writing so your accountant can work with a real number instead of a headline.

On the floor now

Two machines that can realistically clear the deadline.

Both built by GYS in France. Both stocked in the United States — which is the only reason the date is achievable this late in the year.

Straight answers

Questions we actually get asked.

General information about how these rules work — not advice about your return.

Does the equipment have to be new?

No. Section 179 has always covered used equipment, and since 2018 bonus depreciation does too. The test is that it's new to you — you can't have used it before, and you generally can't buy it from a related party. A properly reconditioned machine can be a very efficient way to use the deduction.

What if my shop doesn't have much taxable income this year?

Then §179 is limited. It can't exceed your taxable business income and it can't create a loss — the excess carries forward to a future year instead.

Bonus depreciation works differently: no income cap, and it can create a loss. That's the main reason the two provisions get stacked in a particular order, and it's a decision for your accountant, not a rule of thumb.

If I finance it, do I still get the full deduction?

Generally yes. The deduction follows the cost of the asset placed in service, not the amount you've paid down. That's why financing in Q4 is so common: a modest cash outlay in December against the full deduction for the whole year. And because the interest rules went back to an EBITDA basis — and shops under $32,000,000 in average gross receipts are exempt from the limitation entirely — the interest itself is usually deductible too.

What about a lease?

Depends entirely on the lease. A capital or finance lease with a nominal buyout is typically treated as a purchase and qualifies. A true operating lease generally doesn't — instead you deduct the payments as rent, which is still a deduction, just a different one with a different timing profile. The lease document decides. Send it to your CPA before you sign it, not after.

We can structure it either way. Get qualified first and we'll show you both alongside the cash number, so your accountant is comparing real terms instead of guesses.

Can I write off a service truck or a shop vehicle?

Vehicles have their own rulebook, and it's stricter. For 2026 the amount of a sport utility vehicle's cost you can take under §179 is capped at $32,000. Weight rating, business-use percentage and vehicle type all change the answer, and a dedicated service body is a genuinely different case from a family SUV with a shop logo on the door. Worth a specific conversation.

Does software count?

Off-the-shelf computer software generally qualifies for §179. Custom-developed software and most cloud subscriptions are treated differently — a subscription is usually just a deductible operating expense in the year you pay it, which is simpler but not the same thing.

What happens if I sell the machine in two years?

Recapture. If you dispose of the equipment, or your business use of it drops below 50%, inside its recovery period, some of what you deducted comes back as ordinary income. This is the most common unpleasant surprise attached to Section 179 — don't expense something you already intend to flip, and factor it in before you trade a machine you wrote off two years ago.

Is there any reason not to deduct it all in year one?

Yes, and it's a real one. Take 100% now and there's no depreciation left for the following five years. If you expect a substantially better year, or a higher bracket, in 2028 than in 2026, that deduction is worth more later than it is today. A good accountant will occasionally tell you to elect less than you're entitled to. If yours does, listen — the goal is the lowest tax over years, not the biggest number on this year's return.

Terms your accountant will use

The short glossary.

Placed in serviceThe date the equipment is ready and available for its intended use in your business — not the order date, invoice date or ship date. The date that decides which tax year you get.
BasisWhat the asset cost you for tax purposes. Deductions come off basis; when basis hits zero there's nothing left to depreciate.
§179 electionAn affirmative choice you make on the return, asset by asset, to expense rather than depreciate. Nothing happens automatically.
Bonus depreciation§168(k). Applies automatically to qualified property unless you elect out — the opposite default from §179.
MACRSThe standard depreciation system for anything you didn't expense. Most collision shop equipment sits in the 5- or 7-year class.
Business income limitationThe ceiling that caps §179 at your taxable business income. Excess carries forward; it isn't lost.
RecaptureDeductions coming back as ordinary income because you disposed of the asset early or business use fell below 50%.
Qualified improvement propertyInterior improvements to non-residential buildings, plus roofs and HVAC in some cases. Often overlooked, frequently eligible.
