$12,864 prior depreciation was the Special Depreciation Allowance taken in 2022 when the asset was placed in service ($19,200 limit x 67% business use).

 

The depreciation table to use for 5.0 200DB/HY is Table 1. which shows 32% for the 2nd year. $41,264 x 32% = $13,204, not $11,360.

    Unfortunately the worksheet doesn't provide any clues as to how it is coming up with this number.

    What about the percentage of business use? Are you taking that into consideration?

    Yes. Cost $53,975 x 76.45% business use gets us to the depreciable basis which is correctly shown as $41,264.

    deleted as I see regular and AMT depreciation are coming out the same.  This doesn't make sense.

    I believe you are going to need to do one of several things:

    • Call TT and have them look at it
    • Make sure you have the most recent update
    • It could be that there is a glitch as it is very early in the production cycle.  These things happen early on and if you wait for a couple of updates it may correct itself.

    The form 4562 is not fully functional and will not be until 1/10 at the earliest so come back later :
