  2. Depreciation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Depreciation

    The double-declining-balance method, or reducing balance method, [9] is used to calculate an asset's accelerated rate of depreciation against its non-depreciated balance during earlier years of assets useful life. When using the double-declining-balance method, the salvage value is not considered in determining the annual depreciation, but the ...

  3. Accelerated depreciation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Accelerated_depreciation

    For financial reporting purposes, the two most popular methods of accelerated depreciation are the double declining balance method and the sum-of-the-years’ digits method. [1] For tax purposes, the allowable methods of accelerated depreciation depend on the tax law that the taxpayer is subject to.

  4. MACRS - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MACRS

    t. e. The Modified Accelerated Cost Recovery System (MACRS) is the current tax depreciation system in the United States. Under this system, the capitalized cost (basis) of tangible property is recovered over a specified life by annual deductions for depreciation. The lives are specified broadly in the Internal Revenue Code.

  5. Exponential decay - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exponential_decay

    where the final substitution, N 0 = e C, is obtained by evaluating the equation at t = 0, as N 0 is defined as being the quantity at t = 0. This is the form of the equation that is most commonly used to describe exponential decay. Any one of decay constant, mean lifetime, or half-life is sufficient to characterise the decay.

  6. Exponential smoothing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exponential_smoothing

    Exponential smoothing. Exponential smoothing or exponential moving average (EMA) is a rule of thumb technique for smoothing time series data using the exponential window function. Whereas in the simple moving average the past observations are weighted equally, exponential functions are used to assign exponentially decreasing weights over time.

  7. Exponential growth - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exponential_growth

    Exponential growth is a process that increases quantity over time at an ever-increasing rate. It occurs when the instantaneous rate of change (that is, the derivative) of a quantity with respect to time is proportional to the quantity itself. Described as a function, a quantity undergoing exponential growth is an exponential function of time ...

  8. Reduction of order - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reduction_of_order

    Reduction of order (or d’Alembert reduction) is a technique in mathematics for solving second-order linear ordinary differential equations. It is employed when one solution is known and a second linearly independent solution is desired. The method also applies to n -th order equations. In this case the ansatz will yield an (n −1)-th order ...

  9. Galerkin method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Galerkin_method

    t. e. In mathematics, in the area of numerical analysis, Galerkin methods are a family of methods for converting a continuous operator problem, such as a differential equation, commonly in a weak formulation, to a discrete problem by applying linear constraints determined by finite sets of basis functions.
