Investors & landlords

Thanks for taking the time to respond.  Yes, I elected the option you circled in yellow, and I am confident my election is proper.  

 

But I apparently did not make my question clear.  My question is this:  Other than the fact that Turbotax enters the expense on Line 14, how can anyone know that the expense should be entered on Line 14 given that the IRS directions for Line 14 say nothing about the de Minimis rule and expensing small capital expenditures?
