Tax incentives, which include deductions, exemptions, and tax credits, incentivize or encourage businesses to do the right thing in certain areas. These incentives allow the government to acknowledge $$acceptable$$ decisions a business has made. Incentives provide economic and social meaning and give back to socially responsible businesses. Savvy corporation owners should always be looking for ways to incentivize their partnerships.

This activity will help you with the Project Two milestone and Project Two, where you will be required to further explore tax incentives. As you consider these incentives, think about how this may have an impact on the corporation in your project.
