I need to do a reconciliation between the book and the income tax adjustments. I have a question about tax depreciation.

Tax depreciation was $350,000 before any cost recovery associated with depreciable fixed assets purchased in 2020

Recovery Period Placed in Service Date Original Basis 5-year MACRS property (cars, computers)May 17, 2020 $110,000 7-year MACRS property (furniture and fixtures)July 9, 2020 $730,000

My Solution

  1. 110000 x 20%= 22000
  2. 730000 x14.29%=104317
  3. 350000+22000+104317=416317 tax depreciation vs 278500 book depreciation = 197817 favorable book adjustment

Could you please explain what is wrong with my answer.

Thank you
