Research & Development Tax Reviews

R&D is likely to apply when a project seeks to accomplish an advance in science or technology and the activities undertaken to succeed in this advancement though the resolution of scientific or technological uncertainty. Both large and small/medium sized companies may claim relief for various categories of qualifying expenditure such as,

  • Staffing costs
  • Consumable items
  • Qualifying sub-contractor costs

Some R&D questions that you may want to ask yourself;

  • Does the project involve any technical challenges?
  • Is the project setting new standards?
  • Are there readily available solutions already on the market place?

Many companies by not claiming research and development tax incentives are losing out. Research and development has much wider definition than many people think; you might be eligible for tax benefits and not taking full advantage.

Advancement or uncertainties could include;

  • Creating a process, service, material, device or product
  • An appreciable improvement to an existing process, service etc
  • Arise from the complexity of a system rather than how the individual components behave
  • Arise if a competent professional working in a field can not really deduce how the separate components or subsystems should be combined to have intended function
