Generally, SMEs claim R&D tax credits or R&D tax relief and Large companies claim Research and Development Expenditure Credits (RDEC). However, SMEs may be eligible for RDEC if they cannot claim R&D tax credits or R&D tax relief under the SME regime.
SME R&D INCENTIVES BENEFIT
The Governments R&D incentives regime can be worth up to 33% of a SMEs R&D expenditure. However, the actual support will vary depending on whether you are profit-making or loss-making, and your Corporation Tax position.PROFIT MAKING SMES
You can receive tax relief against your corporation tax liability equating to c. 25% of your qualifying R&D expenditure. That’s a reduction of £2,500 from your tax bill for every £10K you spend on R&D activities.
LOSS MAKING SMES
Are you a loss-making business with high R&D costs? You could be in line for up to 33% of your expenditure in the form of cash credit. That means you could receive over £3.3k for every £10k you spend on R&D. Remember, much more can be claimed as R&D than you might have expected. Check what relief you could be owed for your R&D with our tax credit calculator.LARGE COMPANY RDEC BENEFIT
If you are a large company, or an SME unable to claim under the SME regime,you may be eligible to claim under the RDEC regime. This is a cash or tax benefit of almost 10% (after-tax) or 10p per £1. This means that for every £100k you spend on qualifying R&D expenditure, you can either receive a £10k tax reduction or if you are a loss-maker, receive this support as £10k of cash. Unlike the SME regime, the net benefit doesn’t change whether you are making a loss or making a profit. SMEs who cannot claim R&D tax credits due to having grant-funded projects may also be eligible to claim under the RDEC regime.
