Accelerated Depreciation
Accelerated
Depreciation is the reduction of the value of a property or
chattel as a result
of the passing of time (i.e. a new car may be worth $20,000.00, $18,000.00 after
one year, $16,000.00 after two years etc.). Usually used for tax purposes, the
depreciation in the value of a property may be used as a tax deduction. If a
property or chattel loses its value quickly, this depreciation rate may be
accelerated so that most of the value is lost in the first few years and then
the depreciation rate decreases later in the property's life span
