Question: Best Buy has temporary differences between their GAAP Books and Tax Books caused by differences in how some of their Property and Equipment is depreciated.

Best Buy has temporary differences between their GAAP Books and Tax Books caused by differences in how some of their "Property and Equipment" is depreciated.
