question 39

Short Answer

Boxer LLC has acquired various types of assets recently used 100% in its trade or business. Below is a list of assets acquired during 2015 and 2016:
Boxer did not elect §179 expense and elected out of bonus depreciation in 2015, but would like to elect §179 expense for 2016 (assume that taxable income is sufficient). Calculate Boxer's maximum depreciation expense for 2016, rounded to the nearest whole number (ignore bonus depreciation for 2016). If necessary, use the 2015 luxury automobile limitation amount for 2016 and assume that the 2015 §179 limits are identical to 2016.
