I find the most productive answer to this question is determined via a conversation with the client. Do they want a copy of the depreciation schedule? I'm happy to provide whatever they want, but just printing out two or three extra reports with every delivered tax return is not valuable to most clients. I'm available all year round, if they have questions.
Alternatively, my software can provide depreciation reports in a variety of ways. If they do want the schedule, what format is best for them? How are they using it? How can I organize it in the most valuable format?
These are all value adding questions, which set the stage for you to be more than just a form preparer to your client.
