Bullock, Jr, C G

The article discusses energy and investment tax credits for the plant engineer, and how they can affect potential investments. It points out that investment and energy credits can be substantial (up to 26.5%); that the credits are available only on certain well-defined property; that the amount of the credit varies with the type and life of the property (the life must be at least 3 yr); that there are limitations on how much credit may be taken in a tax year; that the credits improve an investment by the percentage of the credit except when the credit limitations are reached in several successive years; and that the energy credit law will expire in a few years.
