Let's review your questions.

  1. Cost basis is $1,872 ($13,000 x .144) - Use actual cost when you sell or trade, times business percentage for life of vehicle, not the FMV used for depreciation
  2. The depreciation and AMT depreciation is $7,814.  AMT would be different if you had used an accelerated rate of depreciation, you did not. The standard mileage rate (SMR) is not an accelerated rate.
  3. I do not see the same message 'However, the total amount you enter cannot exceed the depreciable basis of the vehicle.' You must enter the $7,814 because this is the actual expense you were able to use to reduce income and it's SMR, not based on the cost of your vehicle.
  4. Answer 'Yes' it was converted to nonbusiness use because you no longer own it and you are reporting the sale under Sale of Business Assets.
