I had a business laptop stolen this year, and a replacement was covered through insurance. There was a $1,000 deductible, and I'm not sure how I should report this

Show the old laptop as a disposal for the either the original cost or the proceeds from the insurance, whichever is lower.  Show the new laptop as an addition at the full purchase price.
