Accelerated depreciation does not lower the total amount of taxes paid over the asset's life.
Instead, it defers or postpones taxes to the later years of an asset's useful life. This is because
accelerated methods charge a higher portion of asset costs against revenue in earlier years
and a lower portion in later years. The result is to reduce taxable income more in earlier years
but less in later years. [Note: From a present value perspective, there is a tax savings from use
of accelerated depreciation. The company gets to use the tax deferred amounts for investment
purposes until they are due.]
