DianeW777...I'm back! Would you please see if I entered the correct numbers? Turbo Tax is showing a total gain of $700 on the sale and it just doesn't seem right. If there are costs I listed in the purchase price of the vehicle that are not allowed, please let me know. Also, I added the trade-in value of the minivan to the cost of the station wagon (Ford Flex) that I used for my rental property. I think that's the right thing to do. I don't quite understand how TT determined prior depreciation numbers, but I'll be happy if you confirm I've entered things correctly. Attached are screen shots to show what TT is providing me. You will be my new best friend if you help me get this done. 😉
