Yes, report the insurance payout as the sales proceeds.
TurboTax cannot determine your business portion, you have to. Divide the number of business miles by total miles driven.
Example, vehicle was driven 24.000 miles and 18,000 were business miles. (18,000 / 24,000 = .75) vehicle portion would be 75% or the selling proceeds/insurance payout.
You would check your vehicle log for the miles you claimed each year. You can also reverse engineer by taking the Standard Mileage you received and dividing by the rate that year.
Example, for 2019 you had a 5,800 deduction. the rate was .58, so you drove 10,000 business miles.
In Tax Year 2019, the Depreciation Equivalent was .26. 10,000 miles X .26 = 2,600 Depreciation.
Perhaps you were not able to claim this vehicle on past returns.
The original cost less depreciation is the adjusted basis.
The insurance payout less adjusted basis is the depreciation recapture. (if the payout is less than the adjusted basis, there is no depreciation recapture, and there would be a loss).
Depreciation Equivalent
2017.................. .25
2018................... .25
2019................... .26
2020................... .27
2021................... .26
2022................... .26
