@earth777 , the reason for not  being allowed to depreciate an asset that is put-in-service and disposed in the same calendar year  , is really because  once you dispose off the property is not in your hands  ( the new owner would start fresh depreciation schedule )  for more than a year.   General rule  for  requirement to depreciate  an asset is that it has to have a class life of more that one year ( and usually cost more than an amount -- usually 1000 ).  Therefore  my opinion to bundle all the improvements  that were done in the same year.

 

Is there more I can do for you ?
