Background
Argent Manufacturing had used the same regional accountant for over a decade — reliable for compliance, but never asked to actively look for savings.
The Challenge
Years of missed deductions were quietly costing the business money. Depreciation methods hadn't been revisited since the company's early years, and several available exemptions on capital equipment had gone unclaimed.
The Solution
A full tax structuring review uncovered unused credits and exemptions across three years of filings, along with a depreciation method better suited to the company's current asset base going forward.
The Outcome
Recovered funds were reinvested directly into equipment and capacity, and the review itself became the template for an annual tax planning cycle the business now runs every year.
