A and B form the equal AB partnership on January 1 of Year 1. A contributes equipment with a tax basis of $8,000 and a fair market value of $20,000. The equipment has been on a 10-year recovery period and has four years remaining. (Were the equipment newly acquired at the time fo the contribution to the partnership, the recovery period would again be 10 years.) B contributes $20,000, which the partnership uses to buy land. The partnership's income equals expenses except for depreciation deductions. Assuming the partnership uses the remedial allocation method, describe how depreciation deductions will be allocated to A and B from the equipment. Ignore any applicable first year depreciation conventions.
