Exercise 8-25 (Algorithmic) (LO. 4)

On April 5, 2023, Kinsey places in service a new automobile that cost $59,000. He does not elect 179 expensing, and he elects not to take any available additional first-year depreciation. The car is used 90% for business and 10% for personal use in each tax year. Kinsey uses the regular MACRS method of cost recovery (the auto is a 5-year asset).

Limits exist on MACRS deductions for automobiles and other listed property that are used for both personal and business purposes. If the listed property is predominantly used for business, the taxpayer can use the MACRS tables to recover the cost. In cases where the property is not predominantly used for business, the cost is recovered using the straight-line method.
