Quoted from Okarcades:I Don't mind operating but I've started another business that is taking up much of my time and it's hard to keep up with the pinball stuff.
i was going to ask, and now you have added, whether you may have better opportunity/use for the money from an eventual sale. sounds like one consideration here is having 30K tied up in machines, the true net out of 900/mo, and how much of your time is involved in handling the route; versus having that 30K working where it might be better served [new business venture] while at the same time freeing up your pinball time for that new venture as well.
Quoted from RobKnapp:Check with your CPA on your depreciation schedule on your machines you wrote off under your business .
another consideration. since pins have tended to hold value, you might be looking at having to recapture most depreciation taken as ordinary income.
