Deductions & credits

If the item in question is $2,500 or less, you can expense it.  How you categorize it is more personal preference than anything else.  You could create a category called "Show Props", or "Power Tools", or you can categorize it as supplies or Miscellaneous.    If it is more than $2,500, you will have to categorize it.  You will then have a choice of depreciating it over its useful life, or expensing the entire cost by taking bonus depreciation and/or a Section 179 deduction.
