Current or Capital? Tax guys out there, double check me, plz!!!

[Edita D.]

Hey there, guys!
Please, double check me on the correctness of expenses placement into current (a write off for 2012) or capital (depreciation).

1.building a new protective covering over electric panel bank (old one was deteriorating): CURRENT expense, since this repair restores the electrical box cover to its previous condition. I am afraid IRS can argue that it restored the box to a "like-new" condition, since its' a new box, and IRS would want it DEPRECIATED. So, is this current or capital expense???

2.purchase and placement of a lockbox: CURRENT expense, since we used it to show the vacant unit.

3.purchase and placement of new security screen doors: CAPITAL over 27.5 years

4.smoke/carbon monoxide detector purchase and installation: CURRENT

5.new blinds: CAPITAL over 5 years

5.restored hardwood floors: CAPITAL over 27.5 years

6. New kitchen cabinets purchase and installation: CAPITAL over 27.5 years

7.My Mac computer is being used 60% of the time for monitoring investment propertirs and doing research. I was hoping to have 70% of the cost depreciated as a CAPITAL expense over 5 years.

Do you agree?
Thank you,
Edita
