In 2007, if a car with a fair market value in excess of $15,500 is leased ($16,400 for trucks and vans), you must add back an additional amount (i.e., subtract it from your otherwise deductible amount) to offset a portion of the lease payments. This rule was enacted to prevent individuals from avoiding the luxury car depreciation limits that apply to purchased vehicles. The amounts that must be added into your income are called "inclusion amounts" and are taken from a price-based table issued annually by the IRS.
