"We appreciate that Congress and the Administration stepped up to the recognition that tax implications for companies incurring losses in 2020 can be an important part of the overall economic recovery, including preowned aircraft, going forward," said IADA Executive Director Wayne Starling.
"Now with more advantageous NOL provisions under the CARES Act, we are better positioned to assist companies that may be suffering this year from the economic shutdown, but would still like to acquire another aircraft in 2020," he said. "For some buyers, they can purchase an aircraft in 2020, take an income loss through 100 percent bonus depreciation and get a refund on taxes paid for income in 2015 or later."
IADA recently held a public webinar that covered several topics, including the legal, tax and borrowing ramifications for used aircraft under the new CARES Act. Participants included Suzanne Meiners-Levy, Shareholder, Advocate Consulting Legal Group PLLC, and Daniel Cheung, Member, Aviation Tax Consultants LLC. In addition, the webinar covered aircraft financing matters featuring Keith Hayes, Senior Vice President and National Sales Manager of PNC Aviation Finance.
Nearly 400 viewers took advantage of hearing the latest legal, tax and financial realities in the COVID-19 environment from the experts at three of IADA's verified Products and Services member companies.
