Built into the standard mileage is an implied amount of depreciation. You generally don't have to worry about the number until you sell the car. See the example below.

**For 2006 the Katrina-related charitable rate will be 32 cents/mile.*From January 1, 2005 through August 31, 2005 the rate for business use is 40.5 cents/mile; for medical and moving the rate is 15 cents/mile. From September 1, 2005 through December 31, 2005 the rate for business mileage is 48.5 cents/mile; for medical and moving the rate is 22 cents/mile. For miles driven for charities providing Hurricane Katrina relief the rate is 29 cents/mile from Aug. 25 to Aug. 31, 2005; for September through December 2005 the Katrina-related rate is 34 cents/mile.
When valuing personal use of a company auto (i.e., computing the value to put on the employee's W-2 for personal use), the standard mileage rate above can be used only if the fair market value of the auto when first made available to the employee does not exceed a specified maximum.

Computing the Fair Market Value of Auto or Light Truck
What's the fair market value of a new car? . . . The question isn't academic. The value is important if you're an employer and provide a car for an employee's use, if you lease a car, etc. You can use the cost of the vehicle as the fair market value, as long as the purchase is in an arm's length transaction. There are two safe harbors. You can use the manufacturer's suggested retail price less 8% or the manufacturer's invoice price plus 4%. Add sales tax and title fees to the price.

You sold the car in the beginning of 2007. You've got to reduce your cost basis by $6,600 (10,000 x 0.16 for years 2003 and 2004 plus 10,000 x 0.17 for 2005 and 2006). If the reduction is large enough, you might end up having to report a profit on the sale of the car.
Depreciation Limits for Cars and Trucks 2008
Depreciation on cars and light trucks and vans is limited. There are two different limits--one for cars and one for trucks. In addition, for 2008 all new assets qualify for the 50% additional depreciation. (Special tables, not reproduced here, apply to pure electric vehicles.)

Subsequent 1,875 1,875
Example: You purchased a new car in June 2008. You take the full 50% additional depreciation. No matter how expensive the vehicle, your maximum depreciation in the first year (2008) is $10,960. You would take $4,800 of depreciation in 2009; $2,850 in 2010; and $1,775 in 2011 and subsequent years until the car is fully depreciated. Thus, a $31,000 car would take about 10 years to fully depreciate. Note. There are other rules that can further limit your depreciation. The first-year limit also applies to any Sec. 179 expense option.Note 1: The limitation on trucks and vans in the table above refers to passenger autos that are built on a truck chassis, including minivans and sport utility vehicles (SUVs) that are built on a truck chassis. Trucks and vans that are over the 6,000 pound loaded gross vehicle weight and qualified nonpersonal use vehicles are not subject to any depreciation limits. In order to qualify, the vehicle must be a qualified nonpersonal use vehicle. For trucks and vans, a qualified nonpersonal use vehicle is one that has been specially modified, such as by installation of permanent shelving and painting the vehicle to display advertising or the company's name, so that they are not likely to be used more than a de minimis amount for personal purposes. These specially manufactured or modified vehicles do not provide significant elements of personal benefit, and a taxpayer is unlikely to purchase these vehicles unless motivated by a valid business purpose that could not be met with a less-expensive vehicle. To be sure if you vehicle qualifies, check with your tax advisor.
Note 2: The Sec. 179 deduction for SUVs that meet the 6,000 pound loaded gross vehicle weight requirement purchased after October 22, 2004 is limited to $25,000.

Use this table to find the annual lease value for imputing income on an employee's use of a vehicle. The fair market value is determined at the time the vehicle is first made available to the employee.
Automobile Fair Market Value Annual Lease ValueFor vehicles with a fair market value in excess of $59,999, you can compute the annual lease value by multiplying the fair market value by 0.25 and adding $500 to the result.$ 1,000 to 1,999 $ 850 2,000 to 2,999 1,100 3,000 to 3,999 1,350 4,000 to 4,999 1,600 5,000 to 5,999 1,850 6,000 to 6,999 2,100 7,000 to 7,999 2,350 8,000 to 8,999 2,600 9,000 to 9,999 2,850 10,000 to 10,999 3,100 11,000 to 11,999 3,350 12,000 to 12,999 3,600 13,000 to 13,999 3,850 14,000 to 14,999 4,100 15,000 to 15,999 4,350 16,000 to 16,999 4,600 17,000 to 17,999 4,850 18,000 to 18,999 5,100 19,000 to 19,999 5,350 20,000 to 20,999 5,600 21,000 to 21,999 5,850 22,000 to 22,999 6,100 23,000 to 23,999 6,350 24,000 to 24,999 6,600 25,000 to 25,999 6,850 26,000 to 27,999 7,250 28,000 to 29,999 7,750 30,000 to 31,999 8,250 32,000 to 33,999 8,750 34,000 to 35,999 9,250 36,000 to 37,999 9,750 38,000 to 39,999 10,250 40,000 to 41,999 10,750 42,000 to 43,999 11,250 44,000 to 45,999 11,750 46,000 to 47,999 12,250 48,000 to 49,999 12,750 50,000 to 51,999 13,250 52,000 to 53,999 13,750 54,000 to 55,999 14,250 56,000 to 57,999 14,750 58,000 to 59,999 15,250

Your annual payments are $7,188. For 2008 the business can only deduct $7,006 ($7,188 less $182). (For 2009, you can only deduct $6,789, $7,188 less $399.) If the car is used less than 100% for business, you cannot deduct any lease payments related to the nonbusiness portion. But you also reduce the annual inclusion amount by the personal usage. For example, if the car above were used only 70% for business in 2008, you could only deduct $4,905 ($5,032 less $127; both amounts are multiplied by 0.7). Prorate amounts for vehicles first leased after January 1 of the year.

Example--On January 1, 2007 your business enters into a lease for an auto with a fair market value of $51,500. Your annual payments are $7,188. For 2007 the business can only deduct $6,940 ($7,188 less $248). (For 2008, you can only deduct $6,645, $7,188 less $543.) If the car is used less than 100% for business, you cannot deduct any lease payments related to the nonbusiness portion. But you also reduce the annual inclusion amount by the personal usage. For example, if the car above were used only 70% for business in 2007, you could only deduct $4,858 ($5,032 less $174; both amounts are multiplied by 0.7). Prorate amounts for vehicles first leased after January 1 of the year.

Example--On January 1, 2006 your business enters into a lease for an auto with a fair market value of $50,500. Your annual payments are $7,188. For 2006 the business can only deduct $6,955 ($7,188 less $233). (For 2007, you can only deduct $6,678, $7,188 less $510.) If the car is used less than 100% for business, you cannot deduct any lease payments related to the nonbusiness portion. But you also reduce the annual inclusion amount by the personal usage. For example, if the car above were used only 70% for business in 2006, you could only deduct $4,869 ($5,032 less $163; both amounts are multiplied by 0.7). Prorate amounts for vehicles first leased after January 1 of the year.

Your annual payments are $5,748. For 2004 the business can only deduct $5,691 ($5,748 less $57). (For 2005, you can only deduct $5,623, $5,748 less $125.) If the car is used less than 100% for business, you cannot deduct any lease payments related to the nonbusiness portion. Reduce the annual inclusion amount by the personal usage. For example, if the car above were used only 70% for business in 2004, you could only deduct $3,984 ($4,024 less $40; both amounts are multiplied by 0.7).

Vehicles Qualifying for New Energy Tax Credit and Alternative Energy Credit
The Energy Policy Act of 2005 provides a credit for gas-hybrid cars based on their fuel efficiency and emissions. The credit applies to vehicles purchased on or after January 1, 2006 and may be as much as $3,400 for the most fuel-efficient vehicles. Taxpayers seeking the credit may want to buy early since the full credit is only available for a limited time. Taxpayers may claim the full amount of the allowable credit up to the end of the first calendar quarter after the quarter in which the manufacturer records its sale of the 60,000th vehicle. For the second and third calendar quarters after the quarter in which the 60,000th vehicle is sold, taxpayers may claim 50 percent of the credit. For the fourth and fifth calendar quarters, taxpayers may claim 25 percent of the credit. No credit is allowed after the fifth quarter.
In addition, certain vehicles will qualify for the alternative energy credit. These are vehicles that can only be operated on an alternative fuel such as compressed natural gas.
Notes.
Phase-Out of Credit for New Qualified Hybrid and Advanced Lean Burn Technology Motor Vehicles
Both the new advanced lean burn technology motor vehicle credit and the new qualified hybrid motor vehicle credit begin to phase out for a manufacturer's passenger automobiles and light trucks in the second calendar quarter after the calendar quarter in which at least 60,000 of the manufacturer's passenger automobiles and light trucks that qualify for either credit have been sold for use or lease in the United States. Taxpayers purchasing the manufacturer's vehicles during the first two calendar quarters of the phase-out period may claim only 50 percent of the otherwise allowable credit. Taxpayers purchasing the manufacturer's vehicles during the third and fourth quarters of the phase-out period may claim only 25 percent of the otherwise allowable credit. No credit is available for vehicles purchased after the last day of the fourth quarter of the phase-out period.
