I got a new Macbook that I use 50% for business. I input all the correct info as far as price, percentage of use for business, and when I started using it and I keep getting this error "Schedule C (Real Estate Photography) -- Asset Entry Worksheet (Apple Macbook Pro 2024): Eligible Sec 179 property has an unacceptable value" but I don't know what to change. Every time I go back through it, everything is correct but I keep getting the same error.  I can either choose "no entry", "Eligible Sec 179, Yes" or "Eligible Sec 179, No".  Help, please??

    you can't take 179 if business use is 50% or less.
