Section 179 and 201 are the deductions.

First. I'm not a tax proffesional...

If the equipment cost $250K

Section 179 and 201 combined will allow you to write off:

Section 179 $ 100K
Section 201 50% of balance (150K) 75K
First year 20% depreciation 15K
=======
Total first year depreciation $ 190K

Using Section 201 only would allow for a 150K 1st year depreciation.

Like I said before thou, you have to make it, before you
can write it off... That is the biggest problem with my
customers, they tend not to show much of a profit...
