Tax Shield

A tax shield is the reduction in taxable income achieved through allowable deductions such as depreciation, interest, or eligible business expenses. Because these deductions lower taxable profit, they reduce the tax payable by the business. Tax shields are important in financial planning because they affect cash flow and effective financing cost.
