business expense when an automo-
bile is used wholly for business pur-
poses, or in trade, profession, or
farming. When used partly for such
purposes and partly for pleasure and
convenience of the taxpayer and his
family, the cost may be prorated and
that part attributed to business or
the other pursuit mentioned deducted
as business expense.
"The same rule applies with regard
to the deduction of depreciation, which
is allowed when an automobile is used
wholly in business, trade, profession,
or farming, and must be apportioned
accordingly, when used partly for such
purposes and partly for pleasure. If
an automobile is used almost exclu-
sively for pleasure, a deduction for
depreciation is not allowed.
''The purchase price of an automo-
bile, even when used wholly in bust
ness, cannot be deducted from gross
income. 1t is capital expenditure
deduction of which is expressively dis
allowed by the revenue act. The five
per cent tax which attaches to the sale
of an automobile cannot be deducted
by the purchaser"
