Wisconsin and the R&D Tax Credit
The Wisconsin Credit for Increasing Research Expenses is an indefinite state tax incentive available to both corporations and flow-through entities, a significant expansion from the pre-2013 rules that only allowed C-Corporations to apply. Currently, the standard credit is calculated as 5.75% of qualified research expenses that exceed a specific base amount. If a claimant had no qualified expenses in the three immediately preceding taxable years, they may still claim a 2.875% credit. Any unused credits can be carried forward for 15 years against Wisconsin income or franchise taxes. Wisconsin also provides specialized credits for research into internal combustion engines and energy-efficient products.
