Answer:

d. $30,290

Explanation:

The half-year convention applies.

Regular MACRS

Furniture (seven-year property)  = $100,000 × 0.1429

                                                     = $14,290

Computers (five-year property)  = $80,000 × 0.20

                                                    = $16,000

Total cost recovery = $14,290 + $16,000  

                                 = $30,290

Therefore, The cost recovery deduction for the business assets for 2017 is $30,290.
