New Year is Coming! Time for Purchasing IT Equipment?

With the end of the year nearly here, business owners in Virginia and all over are considering their coming taxes. If you’re expecting a big bill, now is the perfect time to purchase the IT equipment you’ve been putting off buying! But if you’re unsure what you need, at AesirTech, we’re ready to help you make the right choice and handle the installation for you.

What IT Equipment Do You Need?

 The first question to ask yourself before making any major decisions is what IT equipment you need.

The answer may seem obvious, but unless you are immersed in an IT profession like AesirTech, it’s challenging to keep up with the trends, know what’s outdated, and learn about what can save you time and money.  

That’s why it’s always beneficial to have an expert consultant on your side, whether for purchasing IT equipment, making changes to your business structure, or planning an event.

We can help with the last 2, but we’re here for your IT consulting! 

We generally recommend updating your computers every five years or so, though your area of business, the importance of security, and how much you use your equipment all contribute to when your equipment needs to be replaced.  

Items like phone systems and security equipment may not need to be replaced as often, though you may choose to take advantage of all the latest features.  

What Is Your Tax Burden – Damnit, Jim, I’m a Technician, Not an Accountant! 

The next big question is, what is your tax burden if you’re purchasing IT equipment partly to save on the taxes you’ll owe? An important caveat is that we’re technicians, not accountants, so take our advice with a grain of salt in this area, and be sure to speak with your tax professional!

Finding out early what you’ll owe for your 2024 taxes, or at least getting a reasonable estimate, will help you make a wise decision while purchasing your IT equipment.

For example, if you need a new phone system that will serve 200 users and plan to purchase it in the next three years, but your tax burden is relatively low this year, you may want to wait until next year to make that purchase. On the other hand, if you made a lot of profit this year and expect to pay a lot in taxes, you may not want to put it off!
