February2.247%
March2.033%
April1.819%
May1.605%
June1.391%
July1.177%

Depreciation Factor (from the Instructions for Form 8829):

Example for depreciation computation

David started using a home office in May 2022. Other relevant data are :

  • Basis in-house =$300,000.
  • Land cost: $30,000.
  • Improvements to property: $20,000
  • Area of office: 120 square feet
  • Area of the home is 1,200 square feet.
  • % use of home for office = 120x 100/1200=10%

Adjusted basis of house = $270,000 ($300,000 – $30,000)

Depreciation Factor for the month of May= is 1.605% .

That means the total deprecation for the house for the year 2022 equals: $270,000 x 1.605% = $4333.5

David can claim a deduction on account of depreciation for his home office in 2022 would be: Total depreciation x % of business use, which comes to $4333.5 x 10% = $433.35

This amount is carried back to Part II of Form 8829 to complete the business use expense deduction.
