Asset previously depreciated in a different business
I own a couple pieces of machinery (bulldozer and backhoe-loader). I originally purchased them (used, not new) for a start-up business; I depreciated them there (sect. 179). Later I closed the business.
The machines served in personal use for a couple years. In 2024, I began another business where I will now use them.
My question: How do I treat these assets in the new business? Can I bring them over from personal use at market value, or is that not legit since they were previously depreciated fully in my prior business?
Thanks in advance for your thoughts.
