I show property added during the tax year in Part III using MACRS depreciation.

When I input this for the Form  4562,  it also accumulates on line 14 (Part II) --

Example -- I added a $1000 heater having a 5 year life - SL depreciation.

When I designate this with MACRS depreciation it shows $200 in Part III Section B,

Plus it indicates $200 x 5=1000 on line 14.   Why is this  happening?  How do I suppress???

Thanks

Is there more info here?

I understand there is a box/ hyperlink under 179 depreciation deduction section

which controls Line 14 on form 4562?  Where is this? Thanks

The default would be special depreciation. You can elect 179 by entering the amount you want in that entry point.
