You
will need to know how many miles you claimed under the standard mileage for
previous returns.
The standard mileage deduction includes a factor for depreciation, so in effect you have been depreciating this vehicle while using for business.
In order to report that you sold this vehicle and adjust the sale for the business deductions you have taken, you will need to complete the entire interview for this section.
If you dispose of a vehicle for which you claimed the standard mileage deduction, you need to enter the depreciation equivalent. Review your prior tax returns and see how many business miles you claimed each year for that vehicle.
Multiply those business miles by these amounts for the year. For example, if you claimed 1000 business miles in 2014, you essentially claimed 220 dollars in depreciation equivalent for regular and AMT purposes. Add up the amounts for the years you claimed standard mileage for the vehicle to determine the depreciation equivalent.
2015..........24 Cents
2014..........22 Cents
2012-2013.....23 Cents
2011..........22 Cents
2010..........23 Cents
2008-2009.....21 cents
2007..........19 cents
2005-2006.....17 cents
2003-2004.....16 cents
2001-2002.....15 cents
2000..........14 cents

If this vehicle was used for several rental properties in the section when entering each property is the prior Depreciation Equivalent calculated amount entered on just miles for that property or the total miles for all the properties repeated under each property? What about prior miles on properties that have been sold? Are those miles included somehow?
If you are going to allocate the miles, split the total up between them, do not duplicate.
Does IRS total depreciation for miles for every year - in my case from 2005-2019. I used standard deduction.
The amount of Depreciation you need to recapture when you sell a vehicle that you took the Standard Mileage rate deduction for is below.
This information is in IRS Publication 463 on page 24.
To recapture the depreciation you multiply the rate below by the number of miles you took a deduction for during the year.
Rate of Depreciation Allowed in Standard Mileage Rate Year(s) Depreciation Rate per Mile 2019 $0.26
2017–2018 $0.25
2015–2016 $0.24
2014 $0.22
2012–2013 $ 0.23
2011 $ 0.22
2010 $0.23
2008–2009 $0.21
2007 $ 0.19
2005–2006 $ 0.17
2003–2004 $ 0.16
2001–2002 $ 0.15
