                     (a)  the amount of establishment expenditure for the plant;

                     (b)  if the entity used the plant's * effective life to work out the decline in value of the plant--its effective life and the day on which it could first be used for * commercial horticulture.

             (2)  The notice must:

                     (a)  be given within 60 days of your beginning to satisfy that condition; and
