Get your taxes done using TurboTax

Using the words:

  • "show loss on auto for depreciation" I will assume that you want to enter the vehicle and depreciate it on form 4562. You can:
    •  return to the business section  
    • scroll down to Business Expenses. 
    • Locate Business vehicle expense and start/ edit/ update
    • your basis will depend on when purchased and if converted to business use. The program will walk you through it.

 

  •  "business, auto depreciation , sale 4797",  I am going to assume you have sold an asset (car) in your business. You should:
    • Return to the business, 
    • go to business vehicle, 
    • edit the auto 
    • mark that it was sold and the amount. The checkbox is at the bottom of Tell us about your business vehicle. 
    • You will want to verify the basis is correct after depreciation.

 

Either way, you need the correct basis for the vehicle. See:
