ACRES (accelerated cost recovery system)
ACRES (accelerated cost recovery system)
Commonly referred to as ACRS (pronounced "acres"), a method of depreciating property rapidly for tax purposes. ACRS property is divided into classes and each class has a predetermined time period over which it may be depreciated. ACRS generally is used for property placed in service after 1980 and by Dec. 31, 1986. The modified system that has replaced ACRES is known as MACRS, or Modified Accelerated Cost Recovery System.
