Section 179 and the benefits!

Are you aware of Section 179 and the benefits and deductions you can use for your business?
Section 179 Deduction is available for most new and used capital equipment, and also includes certain software. Bonus Depreciation can be taken on new equipment only (no used equipment, no software) When applying these provisions, Section 179 is generally taken first, followed by Bonus Depreciation – unless the business has no taxable profit in the given tax year. Also, many businesses are finding Section 179 Qualified Financing to be an attractive option in 2013.

MRC Smart Technology Solutions Designated as a Top Workplace Excellence Winner Finalist


San Diego, CA – November 8, 2013. The UT San Diego (Union Tribune) announces MRC in the top ten as a winner of the Top Workplace Excellence Award in the midsize category.

The Top Workplaces are determined based solely on employee feedback that is emailed out and conducted by WorkplaceDynamics, LLP, a leading research firm on organizational health and employee engagement.

Over the past year, more than 5,000 organizations and 1 in every 88 employees in the U.S. have turned to WorkplaceDynamics to better understand what’s on the minds of their employees. Through its workplace improvement offerings, WorkplaceDynamics provides solutions, training and tools to help clients improve their workplace.

Top Workplaces is an evaluation of regional companies by their employees. Workplace Excellence Awards is an evaluation of regional company HR practices that contributed to the proper execution or implementation of a strategic business strategy resulting in a positive bottom line impact. Results were judged by a 3rd party non-biased panel of HR experts.

Awards were presented in the small, medium, and large company categories with an overall grand award for which all sizes of business entrants are eligible. Each organization that is nominated is asked to substantiate the nomination by completing an in-depth application that is available through the San Diego SHRM (Society of Human Resource Management) website. All applications are prescreened before going to the judging panel to ensure minimal compliance with the information requested in the application.
