Hello,

in 2012 I purchased equipment for $42,000 and used section 179 for the purchase. I am looking to trade this equipment in this year and would like to use a like kind exchange with the dealer for the new equipment model. (Have already reviewed these rules).

My question is, do I need to "recapture" my trade in amount?

Close examples of what the sale will be:

Trade in value on 2012 equipment will be $22,000.
2018 New equipment price = $47,000

Thank you! Steve M.

No. 179 the net purchase price of 25k. The sales receipt should show the trade-in being deducted.
