It depends on which depreciation method you desire with regard to the asset (race horse) you are purchasing for Jack...
You want one that has the most depreciation or is the highest value for the greatest tax deduction
Straight line, declining balance or sum of years digits....
1) Straight line: You are definatly not a "straight shooter" because I see you bop and weave in game all the time which isnt straight shooting so the value under straight line is low...
2) declining balance: being that you are an old self proclaimed by you and being part of the MOM's lol....this value is high...Very high so the amount of depreciation taking is high for the greatest tax deduction.....I strongly recommend this depreciation method
3) sum of years digits: with the declining use of some of your digits (fingers and toes) then the value under sum of all your digits is low....so I dont recommend this depreciation method....for the same reasons I recommend declining balance...
Since the purchase of a horse is property, therefore double declining balance is required...doubling #2 from above
so for race horses its 3 years (Jack....sorry useful life of race horse is 3 years...ouch!!!)
so here goes $1000000 Double Depreciation with mid year convention:
year 1 Depreciation (33%) or $333,333 with Book Value year end $666,667
year 2 Depreciation (66.67%) or $444,444 with Book Value year end $222,222
year 3 Depreciation (66.67%) or $148,148 with Book Value year end $74,074
Remaining Depreciation (33.33%) or $24,691 with Book Value year end $49,383
So you can claim $333,333 by tax time...Remember US taxes are due April 15th...so hurry up my friend....
Your US Dogfight Tax refund is going to be high if you follow these calculations REAL high...
Davy I hope your not jealous of my additional US Dogfight Tax refund of an additional $1,333,332 to your $333,333...since I bought $5 million...
hope you appreciate this US Dogfight Tax advice from the Swop.,..Just trying to help my good friend
The price ended up being higher for Jack's new horse than the $5 million I thought....man those horse traders rip you off.
