    Here are a few strategies to consider: 1. Review Here are a few strategies to consider:

1. Review income and expenses. Identify areas to defer income or accelerate deductible expenses before December 31.

2. Make last-minute purchases. Equipment, software, or other business investments made now could qualify for deductions this year.

3. Contribute to retirement accounts. Boost savings and reduce taxable income by making year-end contributions.

4. Plan charitable giving. Donations made before year-end can still count toward this year’s deductions.

    Here’s what to know before celebrating the seaso Here’s what to know before celebrating the season:

You can deduct up to $25 per employee for business gifts each year. Small, thoughtful gifts like gift cards or baskets usually qualify.

100% of the cost of staff parties is typically deductible if they’re primarily for employees, not clients. That includes food, drinks, and entertainment.

Always document who attended, the purpose, and what was spent.

And don’t forget to double-check everything with your tax professional.
