Accounting & Tax Services in Nebraska

Nebraska’s economy is powered by a unique combination of finance, insurance, agriculture, and manufacturing. Omaha is home to five Fortune 500 companies including Berkshire Hathaway, Union Pacific, and Mutual of Omaha, and employs one in twelve workers in finance and insurance at double the national rate. Douglas County led all large U.S. counties in GDP growth at 9.2% in 2022, while agriculture contributes over $6 billion annually to the state economy.

Nebraska’s graduated state income tax applies to both individuals and corporations, with top rates that require careful entity structuring. S-Corp owners operating across state lines face nexus considerations when selling into neighboring states like Iowa, Kansas, and Colorado. The state’s Nebraska Advantage Act offers tax incentives for job creation and capital investment, but qualifying requires proper documentation and compliance planning.

SDO CPA works with Nebraska business owners across finance, insurance, agriculture, and manufacturing to structure entities, optimize S-Corp reasonable compensation, and coordinate federal and state tax strategies. From Omaha’s corporate corridors to Lincoln’s growing tech scene and the agricultural heartland of central Nebraska, we provide monthly bookkeeping and fractional CFO services scaled to your stage of growth.

Nebraska Tax Planning Tip

Nebraska imposes graduated state income tax on both individuals and corporations, with top individual rates reaching 6.64% and corporate rates at 7.25% on income over $100,000. S-Corp and partnership owners should analyze whether pass-through income creates a lower combined tax burden than C-Corp status. Nebraska also offers the Nebraska Advantage Act with tax credits for businesses investing $1 million+ and creating 10+ jobs, which can significantly offset state tax liability for qualifying companies.

Nebraska is home to over 170,000 small businesses and a population of 1,963,692. From Finance, Insurance, Agriculture to professional services, Nebraska business owners need CPAs who understand complex corporate tax structures and multi-state operations and can provide year-round tax planning — not just compliance.
