Yes, if a tax return is amended then section 179 can be reduced. However, you will need to have an accountant or professional tax preparer do the return for you once amended.

How do you fill in line 6 of Part I of Form 4562?

Part I of Form 4562 (Depreciation and Amortization) concerns Section 179 property. That's property that you buy to use in your trade or business and that's either tangible personal property or other tangible property (except buildings and their structural components). On line 6 column (a), give a brief description of the property that you're expensing under Section 179 (for example: office furniture, truck). In column (b), give the cost of that property. In column (c), enter the amount that you're expensing under Section 179. The entire cost of the property doesn't have to be expensed. You can depreciate the amount that you don't expense.

What is the Section 179 tax deduction limit for 2014 income taxes?

The limit for Section 179 expense is $500,000 as it has been for the past few years. This is the limit for any one return but that certainly doesn't mean you can write of $500,000 on your tax return. The cap is firstly the cost of Section 179 allowed property, and secondly, you cannot write off any amount that would cause you to have a loss for the tax year. There are also certain limits within different types of property, so you need to be careful and you certainly should have someone preparing your taxes if you are in a situation whereby you would be using items such as 179 expensing.
