Asset depreciation issue for 1065 California returns

If you enter asset information for a 1065 state or city return in the asset module, note that some 1065 state and city returns have depreciation issues.

Data calculation and transfer

After calculating depreciation and amortization, the application transfers amounts for assets in the
CA
column to Form 3885P (Form 3885L for LLCs). The application then transfers the depreciation and amortization amounts to the various state forms. These include:
  • Form 565 (Form 568 for limited liability companies)
  • California Schedule F
  • California Farm Rental Income and Expenses Worksheet
  • California Form 8825 (including the California Rent and Royalty Schedule)
State adjustments and tax preference items transfer directly to the
Depreciation adjustment on property placed in service after 1986
and
Adjusted gain or loss
fields in the
CASepK
screen.
State corporate ACE adjustments transfer directly to the
AMT Depreciation: Total Depreciation
,
ACE Depreciation: Post 1997 property
,
1990-1997 property
,
1987-1989 property
,
1981-1986 property

Sec 168(f) (1)-(4) property
,
Other property
, and
Basis adjustment on disposition
fields in the
CAMisc
screen.
Current-year asset disposition information transfers directly to Schedule D-1, California Form 4684 and California Form 8824. The application uses the state cost and depreciation to calculate the California sales and casualty and theft dispositions.
