James purchased a new business asset (three-year personalty) on july 23, 2019, at a cost of $40,000. james takes additional first-year depreciation but does not elect section 179 expense on the asset. determine the cost recovery deduction for 2019.

The cost recovery deduction for 2019 is $26666

Explanation:

Additional first-year depreciation = 40000*0.5

                                                        = $20000

MACRS cost recovery = (40000 - 20000)*0.3333

                                     = $6666

Total cost recovery deduction for 2017 = Additional first-year depreciation  + MACRS cost recovery

                                                                 = $20000 + $6666

                                                           = $26666

Therefore, The cost recovery deduction for 2019 is $26666
