The Domestic Manufacturing Deduction (DMD) is a tax incentive provided by the United States government to encourage businesses to maintain and expand manufacturing operations within the country. This deduction allows eligible businesses to reduce their taxable income by a percentage of the income derived from domestic production activities. The policy aims to bolster the U.S. economy by incentivizing companies to invest in local manufacturing, thereby creating jobs and supporting the domestic supply chain.
To qualify for the DMD, businesses must meet specific criteria outlined by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS), including the type of activities considered as manufacturing and the proportion of income generated from these activities. The deduction is calculated based on a complex formula that takes into account the company's qualified production activities income (QPAI). While the DMD offers significant tax savings, navigating its requirements can be challenging, necessitating careful planning and documentation to ensure compliance and maximize benefits.
