Key Tax Strategies for Michigan Manufacturers: Decoupling and R&D Credits

Description

Join MMA & Rehmann for a focused session designed for Michigan manufacturers navigating the state’s 2025 tax changes. We’ll break down the impact of Michigan’s decoupling from key federal tax provisions — including revisions to bonus depreciation, interest limitations, and the federal requirement to capitalize and amortize research and experimental (R&E) expenditures. You’ll learn how these shifts may affect state taxable income, cash flow, and strategic planning. We’ll also cover the reinstated refundable Michigan R&D tax credit and how manufacturers can use it to offset innovation costs, encourage increased research investment, and support long‑term growth. Attendees will leave with practical, actionable strategies to manage tax exposure, maximize available incentives, and stay competitive in Michigan’s manufacturing landscape.
