- Which of the following statements with respect to the depreciation of property under MACRS is incorrect? Under the half-year convention, one-half year of depreciation is allowed in the year the property is placed in service. If a taxpayer elects to use the straight-line method of depreciation for property in the 5 -year class, all other 5 -year class property acquired during the year must also be depreciated using the straight-line method. In some cases, when a taxpayer places a significant amount of property in service during the last quarter of the year, real property must be depreciated using a mid-quarter convention. Real property acquired after 1986 must be depreciated using the straight-line method. The cost of property to which the MACRS rate is applied is not reduced for estimated salvage value.arrow_forwardA permanent steel building used for the overhaul of dewatering systems (engines, pumps, and wellpoints) is placed in service on July 10 by a calendar-year taxpayer for $240,000.
