Feedback
A taxpayer has two choices in determining automobile expenses: the automatic mileage method and the actual cost method. A basis adjustment is required if the taxpayer changes from the automatic mileage method to the actual operating cost method.
b. Rex uses the actual cost method. [Assume that no § 179 expensing is claimed and that 200% declining-balance cost recovery with the half-year convention is used. The recovery limitation for an auto placed in service in 2013 is as follows: $3,160 (first year), $5,100 (second year), $3,050 (third year), and $1,875 (fourth year).]
Compute his depreciation deductions for year.
