Do you have a TurboTax Online account?

We'll help you get started or pick up where you left off.

Where can I find my cost basis for depreciable assets I entered into Turbo tax years ago?

I see $2134 "depreciation expense or depletion" on Schedule E of my return for 2022, 2023, etc... but I need to know how Turbo Tax is calculating that.

Where can I find my cost basis for depreciable assets I entered into Turbo tax years ago?

Within the rental activity of the tax return, at the screen Asset Summary, select Show Details to see the computation method that was used.

 

 

To view this screen within TurboTax Premium Online, select the rental activity, then Rental Property under Assets.

Edit the asset at the screen Your Property Assets.

 

IRS Publication 534 explains the different depreciation methods.

 

See Form 4562 Depreciation and Amortization Report for each year that you prepare a Federal 1040 income tax return.  It may be found within the tax return forms and worksheets.

 

 

 

 

You can print or view your full tax returns prior to filing after you have paid for the software.

 

  • View the entries down the left side of the screen at Tax Tools.
  • Select Print Center.
  • Select Print, save or preview this year's return.
  • Select Include government and TurboTax worksheets.
