Kea Posted February 14, 2008 Report Posted February 14, 2008 New client came in for me to do their 2006 and 2006 tax returns. She brought me the 2001-2005 returns. (2001-2004 were prepared in Sept 2005.) There is no depreciation or Section 179 taken for 2001-4. There are items listed as "other" on page 2 of 2003 Sch C that appear to be assets: Trailer $1721 Portable Office $2053 Storage Unit $1976 For 2005 Schedule C "other", they listed: bid plans / septic plans $2277 (this is OK?) Septic tank - construction $18,602 And (my favorite) took section 179 for Mobile home office $34,013. For the assets shown on the 2005 return, I can just file an amended return since the accounting method has not been used for 2 years - right? (06 has not yet been filed.) The 2003 changes would require a Form 3115 - right? What is the impact if the client decides not to make these changes? I'm sure they won't be eager to pay many thousands of $$. Although, she did ask me to review the old returns for mistakes. Thanks for your help. Quote
