| Some states do not conform to federal bonus depr. or sec. 179. They add back the difference between regular MACRS depr and the bonus/sec. 179.
Lacerte does not calculate it (even when done internally from S-corp K-1 to 1040 import feature). At the very least, Lacerte should print a warning diagnostic stating that K-1s need to be done manually for state add-back of bonus/179 depreciation adjustment. | |

| Are you talking about partnerships or S-corps?
I just checked one of mine (S-corp) and it is doing it correctly. | |

| an S-corp that claims section 179 and is passed thru on K-1 to 1040 taxpayer does NOT get picked up on Maine tax returns for the add-back adjustment.
Maybe Lacerte is doing it properly for your state and not Maine? | |

| It works correctly for my CA s-corps. | |

| PRoSeries did the same thing to me as well. I am not sure others are understanding you correctly.
The S-Corp is doing it correctly and showing a difference between fed and state. This shows as an adjustment on the K-1. When entering into the 1040 program, there is no area on Lacerte, or on Proseries where you can enter the difference between fed and state depreciation that shows on the K-1. What I did for NYS was to call up the form where this would be entered, in this case either the IT-398 or IT-399 and entered the equipment and the difference there. This created the entries I needed for the return to be filed properly. I am actually quite surprised that there is not a data entry screen in either of these programs that allow us to enter this difference as it is not an uncommon issue. Maybe, I just missed the input device. Who knows, irregardless <;-)>, the return got filed. | |
