What is a "tax write off"? - eviltoast

Let’s say that I have this one movie that is finished that I spent 80 million to make. I decided to “write it off”. So when I get to pay my taxes, do I get a 80 million discount?

    hollywood accountants will inflate the internal markup for everything, shuffle some numbers around, and come up with a 300mil ‘write off’ across all the various corporate divisions and shit.
