I think this is a tax avoidance strategy that may save a lot on taxes. E.g. use accelerated depreciation to avoid taxes in a really profitable year and then if you have a loss or much lower profit in a subsequent year, you have successfully avoided a bunch of taxes. Not an accountant or tax lawyer so there may be a catch here.
