You can depreciate the total of five years. 9 GRA Figure it out for yourself, after five years you will have more than paid for the building. The following is an example of what this storage will make for you. 1,000 Bu. Grain at 50c $ 500.00 (Estimated difference between market price and support price 1953 basis) - 1,000 -Bu. storage rate 4 years at 14c a bushel per year 560.00 5 year income tax depreciation using a 25 bracket, 5 years at $31.00 per year 155.00 $1,215.00 Less loan on bin for 5 years at 4 57.60 5 year total income from bin $1,157.40 A 1,000 bushel bin will return you twice what you have paid for it in 5 years. Which means that you will have this bin available for your own use without any cost to you. AVOID Mr. Farmer do not wait until grain. It is impossible lor dealers and manu tacturers to have a large enough supply of grain bins on hand at harvest time to take care of your needs.
