Explanation of Solution

Cost Recovery: The process of distributing the capitalized cost of asset over a period of time, by using different methods like depreciation, amortization, or depletion, is referred to as cost recovery.

Personal use property is held for personal use rather than for use in a trade or business. Hence, cost recovery deductions are not allowed for such property.
