Deductions & credits

To clarify, 

are you removing the vehicle from business service (sold or converted to personal use)? 

Unless you were ever subject to Alternative Minimum Tax (AMT) , and you would have known if you had been, the AMT depreciation is the same as regular depreciation. 

 

Are you putting into service for tax year 2023 a vehicle you purchased in 2022?

If you have never used this particular vehicle as a business asset/vehicle before placing it into service, you would have claimed no depreciation, so zero AMT Depreciation. If you used this vehicle previously as a business vehicle, enter the depreciation you have claimed on it previously. You can find that in the prior tax return for the year it was previously used as a business vehicle, look for Form 4562 "Depreciation and Amortization Report" for that prior year. 

 

$11,500 will be your BASIS (your cost or value when placed into service) on which depreciation is calculated. 

 

If a Taxpayer is over a certain income limit, they are subject to Alternative Minimum Tax (AMT) and they need to adjust certain deductions including the depreciation they can claim.
