    Thanks for the great video Farhat! My question is can the deduction for these expenses be taken from one's personal tax return, rather than the business. Specifically, I have a full-time job where I make $150,000 per year. I have started a small side business (registered as an LCC solely in name of my wife and I) and have incurred expenses getting the company off the ground. The purchases have come solely from my fulltime job income as the side business is yet to create any income. Can I claim the 179 deductions no my personal income tax for personal property purchased for my LLC? As example, if I purchased a gas generator, air compressor, etc. for a total of $50,000, would I be able to deduct the $50,000 from my $150,000 personal income?

    I am a bit confused about minute 7:15 or so…this is the first example in which John purchased an asset that he depreciated 100% on year 1 through section 179. Then he decided to sell it for $5 in 2024. This will generate him a “gain” for which he will be tax $5 as ordinary income. Should John had opted for the MACRS route after 3 yrs of depreciation the new basis for the asset would be $48,250. At this point John decided to sell the asset for $50K therefore the $1750 would be a “gain” that would taxed as ordinary income. However, it is mentioned shortly after that…if John had used section 179 the whole $50K would be considered taxable income. The question is: if he sold the asset for $5 initially would he pay ordinary income tax on those $5 or he would have to pay ordinary income tax on the new basis of $48,250 based on the MACRS depreciation estimated value at the 3-year mark?
    That part threw me off
    Thanks

    Hello, let's say I earn a sum of money thru stocks on my personal name, can I open a new LLC, apply section 179 to buy a vehicle for a new company that has not generated any income? Or must the income be generated thru the company?

      It's a startup company so you are not expected to have any income. If you buy a 5k vehicle for ur business in 2022 but earned only 4k for the year, you would only be allowed the 4k deduction from irc 179.

    So you need to have a business in order to write off tax?
