Summary
NEW-Ordinary and Necessary Business Expenditure Deductions Available for certified Massachusetts Marijuana Businesses IRC§ 280E prohibits trades or businesses that business in controlled substances from claiming any ordinary and necessary business expense deductions handed by the IRC, other than for the cost of goods vended. As a result, because marijuana remains federally classified as a Schedule I controlled substance and is illegal to vend under civil law, certified marijuana businesses are unfit to claim ordinary and necessary business expense deductions for civil income duty purposes, other than for the cost of goods vended. Effective for duty times beginning on or after January 1, 2022, Massachusetts severed from IRC§ 280E concerning certified marijuana businesses only. As a result, a certified Massachusetts marijuana business can abate ordinary and necessary business charges that would else be disallowed under IRC§ 280E. See MGL ch 62, § 2(d)(4) for further information.
