It would take a significant amount of research to justify and show you why there is a difference between the Federal depreciation and the California depreciation of the same asset.  However, it is known that there are a number of instances where the two depreciation systems do not match.  Often, the Federal laws would change, but California did not conform to the change.  

 

The best advice for you would be to leave the depreciation on both returns the way that TurboTax has calculated it.  There is most likely a good reason for doing it this way.
