It could wait until January to make the purchase, or it could buy the furniture and place it in service in December to try to increase its current-year tax depreciation deduction. What impact would this proposed purchase have on Jhonny's depreciation deduction for the year if bonus depreciation is not claimed (if eligible) and the maximum Section 179 expensing limit is (a) $500,000 or (b) $25,000?
