Quizplus · Accepted Answer

MACRS (Modified Accelerated Cost Recovery System) allows for greater depreciation deductions in the earlier years of an asset's life, compared to straight-line depreciation, which spreads the depreciation deductions evenly over the asset's useful life. Therefore, the advantage of MACRS over straight-line depreciation is that it allows for a larger tax deduction in the earlier years. Straight-line deductions are not a recognized accounting method.
