Answer:

The right solution is "600000".

Explanation:

The given values are:

Cost of office furniture,

= $100,000

Cost of the computer system,

= $500,000

  • The changed MACRS enables a company to reduce the mortgage balance of such deteriorating properties over time.
  • Throughout the very first years, MACRS permits quicker depreciation although subsequently slows down depriving. This seems to be fantastic for corporations from a tax point of view.

Now,

The cost recovery deduction will be:

=  [tex]Office \ furniture+Computer \ system[/tex]

On substituting the values, we get

=  [tex]100000+500000[/tex]

=  [tex]600000[/tex]
