On the top of each column of Statement A you will see the form/schedule and line number on that form that the entries for that column belong to. For instance, the first column may say Form 1120S, line 21, so the entries in that column would refer to the income reported on the first page of form 1120-S. Since you mention section 179 in the second column, I assume the title for that column is associated with Form 4562, depreciation.
So, it would depend on what you are being asked to enter whether you use the number in column 1 or 2.
