For a vehicle under 6000 lbs purchased for 2023 sec 179 limit is $12,200. if a vehicle purchased for $40,000 . and used 100% for business purposes, written records kept. line 26(i) would be $12,200 can i then take the 80% of the remaining basis for depreciation for special depreciation line 25 , in the amount of ($40k - $12.2k) * 80%= $22.24k or is the $12,200 the limit for the vechicle for special and sec 179 and (h). Please clarify or perhaps point me to a demonstration of a vehicle under the 6000lb limit all of the tutorials I find are for those above the weight limit. line25: $22,240 line 26(h) $0 line 26(i) $12,200 or line25: $0 line 26(h) $0 line26(i) $12,200. Or what are my options thank you for your knowledge
The depreciation limits for a passenger vehicle is a combined limit for all types of depreciation, whether Special Depreciation, Section 179, or ordinary MACRS. If you take Section 179 up to the limit, you do not get an additional amount of bonus depreciation. Starting in year two, ordinary MACRS depreciation (subject to the annual limits) with a basis of the original cost of the vehicle, less any special depreciation or Section 179 deduction taken in the first year. I have a video explaining this process. th-cam.com/video/HtD1Lj-hnuk/w-d-xo.html
Line 11 is the business income limitation. This is the tentative income from your business without regard to any Section 179 Deduction. This is explained at approximately 2:50 in the video
In my "Depreciation 101" playlist of videos, I go over the pros and cons of MACRS v. special depreciation v. the Section 179 deduction. (For those who might be confused, IRC Section 168 governs calculating depreciation for tax purposes).
@@TheTaxGeek In the past, Section 179 could not be used to deduct personal property used in residential rental property. However, the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act eliminated this restriction starting in 2018. This means that landlords can now use Section 179 to deduct the cost of personal property items they purchase for use inside rental units-for example, kitchen appliances, carpets, drapes, or blinds.

If your business has not generated income yet; however, you are a high earner, can use 179 to minimize taxes on w-2
No. You cannot use a Section 179 Deduction to either create or increase a business loss that can be used to offset other income.
hello , can you please explain how to file line 11 where is the limitation

Can you highlight code 168 n compare

Can Section 179 be used for rental properties, i.e. purchase of HVAC? (My 2022 Turbotax says it is only for commercial properties.)
You can't use Section 179 for rental property assets, but you can take Special Depreciation, which gives you largely the same result.
