L’attività di Studio Contatto consentirà comunque, nella peggiore delle ipotesi, cioè in caso di insuccesso, di valutare la possibilità di mettere a perdita le somme fatturate ma non incassate, diminuendo di conseguenza l’imponibile dell’azienda ai fini fiscali e consentendo il recupero delle imposte già anticipate o da corrispondere.

to write-off
The temptation is to translate "recognise as losses" or "as expenses" which is not the case. It just means that you can write-off the invoices issued as if they had never been written and as a result they do not count as income. In fact this reminds me, I must see if I can still do this with a client who didn't pay me. I have already paid VAT on that invoice as if I had earned the income. If I don't do anything I will never get that back.

Phil is right. No hyphen for the verb: "to write off", or "a write-off"
