Recycling firm gets sales tax exemption for purchasing Jet plane

ELK GROVE, CA (Scrap  Monster): A recycling company based in Northern California has obtained sale tax exemption from the California Board of Equalization for the purchase of a Cessna Citation 650 Jet, according to Aero & Marine Tax Professionals, a tax consulting firm based in Sacramento.

An executive from the company stated, “With the purchase of the plane we were able to better accomplish getting our smaller staff in place for equipment acquisitions and business applications for the recycling industry. We were able to get directly to meetings where our previous airplane would be more cumbersome and even would have needed to make more trips to get our people there.”

The executive also stated, “There was a large mystery among our staff as to whether we should even attempt this exemption process, or if we qualified at all. We didn't want to bring down the evil eye of the franchise tax board. Aero & Marine Tax Professionals’ material was very well received, and their willingness to work with us was a tremendous offer and flexibility. Everyone benefited from that! The guidelines they put together made it simple to do what was needed. I would absolutely recommend Aero & Marine Tax Professionals, and have!”

Aero & Marine Tax Professionals founder, Mr. Tom Alston, stated, “We are dedicated to helping our clients reduce their tax burdens in the purchase of an aircraft or marine vessel. We've had clients who nearly lost their case with the California Board of Equalization merely for having their data in the wrong format and not including all of the requested data, but that's when they called us. We worked with them, and they obtained their tax exemption. We've never lost a case because we know exactly what we're doing when we begin.”
