I’m self employed, where on my taxes can I deduct a laptop repair?

I’m self employed and my MacBook laptop just needed a repair after the logic board and hard drive failed.

Since everything is built in it ended up costing $1200 to replace the hardware. The original laptop cost was $2600.

What category or line should I add this expense to on my business expenses?
