For a Residential Rental Capital Improvement/ Flooring Depreciation

I entered it as a Real Estate Property/Appliance, Carpet

cost = 5557. In Service Date 7/25/2019.  I chose to spread the deduction over 5 years.  TT used % year/HY/200DB and calculated 2019 Expense of 1115.

It appears that TT depreciated the flooring over 5 years equally ( 1115/yr) and did not prorate the first year (2019) based on when the Flooring was installed ( In service Date - 7/25/2019).  Is TT correct? or should the first year Depr amount be prorated based on the In Service Date
