ASSET DEPRECIATION RANGE
It is a kind of elective method in accounting that was established after 1970 by the Internal Revenue Code for tangible assets. Before the use of the ADR system, there were more than 100 classes of tangible asset properties according to the taxpayer’s industry and business. Due to the fact that the ADR system did not address the problems it needed to address--the disagreements between taxpayers and IRS about accounting the salvage value and repairs of assets, and their useful life--the Accelerated Cost Recovery System was put into place in 1981 in order to lessen the complication of determining depreciation.
