I sold a car used in rental property, please explain tax implications, and how I enter the sale in Trutbotax Online.
I bought the car in 2010 for $2500.
I sold it March 29, 2023 for $400. (junkyard sale).
I have $1600 in depreciation 2010 to 2023 (based on depreciation portion of standard mileage deduction).
I used the vehicle about 20% for my rental property (on average). So, 80% of usage (on average) is personal use.
Is my 'cost basis' 20% of $2500? (ie: $500 ?)
Is my 'sale price basis' 20% of 400? (ie: $100 ?)
Do I subtract my cost basis from (selling price + depreciation) to arrive at gain or loss? (500 - (100 + 1600) ) ?
Do I have a income gain, or loss, for tax reporting? (Is it -$1200 loss, or gain?)
I think if i understand WHY I am doing all these calculations, it would help me understand the TT forms. Thanks!
