substantial depreciation of a property's worth in its early active years (Accounting)
Accelerated depreciation refers to any one of several methods by which a company, for 'financial accounting' and/or
tax purposes,
depreciates a
fixed asset in such a way that the amount of depreciation taken each year is higher during the earlier years of an asset’s life. For financial accounting purposes, accelerated depreciation is generally used when an
asset is expected to be much more productive during its early years, so that depreciation
expense will more accurately represent how much of an asset’s usefulness is being used up each year. For tax purposes, accelerated depreciation provides a way of deferring
corporate income taxes by reducing
taxable income in current years, in exchange for increased taxable income in future years.
