Does TurboTax have a CCA calculator?

I'm thinking of using TurboTax for the first time this year. I'm self employed and want to claim a new computer (purchased in 2022) as a CCA. Does TT have a calculator that figures this out for me? I'm trying to understand all the forms with no luck at all. 

 

Thanks!

There is no calculator in the software but you may find what you need in our TurboTax articles below.

Thanks for your reply. Is it as simple of doing the 4 step calculation you linked to and then adding that amount when prompted by the return form? The CRA form is long and complicated and I'm hoping TT will take care of that with just a few simple steps.
