We can also facilitate your company’s accounting and application for the R&D Tax Credit by:

• assisting your staff in identifying the qualifying R&D activities
• gathering and documenting the related costs

About Delaware

Delaware may be small, but its business is big. The second-smallest state in the country is home to over half of all U.S. publicly-traded companies and 63% of the Fortune 500—attracted by Delaware’s friendly corporate tax law. Residents have their pick of jobs in several sectors. Giants like Perdue Farms provide farming jobs for the state, whose agricultural exports consist mainly in poultry, soybeans, corn and dairy. There is no shortage of jobs in the financial sector either, with Bank of America, JPMorgan Chase and others on the scene. Healthcare, retail, technology and pharmaceutical giants also provide jobs for Delaware’s residents.
