The 2018 tax laws have made it easier for the IRS to apply the accuracy-related penalty for substantial
understatement of tax when the 20% business tax is involved. The threshold is now the larger of $5,000

If you buy a heavy SUV used solely for business, the full cost can be deducted in the first year as a result
