Situation in which an employer owns a vehicle and provides it for the use of employees. The company uses the auto lease value method to compute the personal use amount for the employees to report on their W-2 forms.

My questions relate to the employer - does the company expense all items related to the vehicle usage and depreciate at 100%, assuming that the ALV calculation takes care of the personal use portion by allocating it to compensation?

Any guidance/clarification would be most helpful. Thanks!

That's correct. 100% expenses are deductible. And credit the company's auto expense, or credit other income, with the personal use amounts, to offset the compensation debits.
