Answer:

the depreciation expense on the equipment will be 1,785 for tax purpose.

Explanation:

We will look into the MACRS (Modified Accelerated Cost Recovery System)

table for a property of seven years placen into service in the 4th quarter:

Which give us 3.57%

now we multiply the basis by the coefficient and get the value for depreciation

50,000 x 3.57% = 1,785 depreciation expense under MACRS
