Explanation:

for 2017:

additional first year depreciation = $75,000*50%

                                                       = $37,500

using 7-year MACRS mid quater converntion, the depreciation % for quater 4 is 3.57%

additional MACRS cost recovery = ($75,000 - $37,500)*3.57%

                                                       = $1338.75

total cost recovery for 2017 = $37,500 + $1338.75

                                              = $38,838.75

for 2018, additional first year depreciation is $37,500

using 7-year MACRS mid quarter convention for next year, the depreciation % fpr quarter 4 is 27.55%

the machine sold in september , so it was used for two full quarters and half third quater

the recovery is computed for 2.5 over 4 quarters of a year

additional MARSC cost recovery = $37,500*27.55%*(2.5/4)

                                                       = $6457.031

total recovery cost for 2018 is $6457.031

Therefore, The total cost recovery for 2017 is $38,838.75 and The total recovery cost for 2018 is $6457.031
