The Johnsons moved into the home in 2006, and David began using his home office in the same year. The home’s current fair market value is $500,000 ($50,000 allocated to the land). County land records reflect that David’s father bought the land in 1969 for $6,000 and built the house in 1973 at a cost of $60,000.

Last year, David elected to use the actual operating cost method to compute deductible expenses for his business use of the Infiniti. Under this method, he depreciates the SUV using MACRS (half-year convention). (Hint: See Table 3 in the Instructions to Form 4562.) His operating expenses for the Infiniti for 2015 are as follows:

During business use, David received three moving traffic violations (total fines of $680) and incurred tolls and parking charges of $440. The Infiniti was driven a total of 14,500 miles during 2015 (mileage was incurred evenly during the year).

Of the $250,000 purchase price, $30,000 was allocated to the land. After an $80,000 renovation to the house (e.g., new flooring, roof, heating unit), the property was rented beginning February 1, 2009. In 2013, the Johnsons decided that their investment would be more marketable if the house was rented as furnished. Consequently, in May of that year, they spent $38,000 on new furniture (including drapes, carpeting, and appliances). Under the current lease agreement, the property rents for $2,200 a month (payable at the beginning of each month) with utilities not included.
