Cost of asset $200,000

Less Greater of allowed and allowable cost recovery:

2018 $910

2019 $7,272 ($8,182)

($910+$7,272=$81,82)

Adjusted basis of the asset at the end of 2019 $191,818

($200,000-$8,182)

Therefore the Adjusted basis of the asset at the end of 2019 will be $191,818

B. Calculation to determine what The cost recovery deduction for 2020 is

Cost recovery deduction for 2020= ($200,000 x .03636 x 0.5 / 12)

Adjusted basis of the asset at the end of 2019 $191,818

($200,000-$8,182)

Less Cost recovery for 2020 $303

($200,000 * .03636 * 0.5 / 12)

Basis on date of sale $191,515

($191,818-$303)

Loss on sale of asset ($11,515)

garri49 [273]

Answer:

$47439.50

Explanation:

For a single tax payer if your taxable income range is $200,000 - $500,000 then your income tax is $45,689.50 + 35% of amount over $200,000 of taxable income.

Income tax liability = $45689.50+{ 205000-200000)×35%}

$45689.50+(5000×35/100)

$45689.50+(5000×0.35)

$45689.50+1750

= $47439.50

The income tax liability will be $47439.50
