    d.) $38,000

    Explanation:

    Given that

    Acquired value of the plant = $190,000

    Recovery period = 5 years

    So according to section 179, the total deduction is limit to the 1 by 5 i. e useful life or recovery period of acquired price or purchase price

    So, the amount is

    = Acquired value of the plant : recovery period

    = $190,000 : 5 years

    = $38,000

    By dividing the acquired value with the recovery period we can get the maximum deduction
