This is a rather depressing graph, what happened in 2022-2024?

The tax change that causes companies to have to weirdly treat developer salaries as some sort of asset such that they can only write off 20% of it per year. Outcome of this is killer for startups and causing a huge issue everywhere.

Bottom line: If a company makes $1MM in revenue and pays $1MM in salary, they owe taxes on $800k profit. Yes, this is actually the law now.

How do non-developer salaries affect those taxes?

(In 2024, if a company paid salaries for a software developer, a novel writer, and a cook, does each of those 3 positions affect taxes in the same way?)
