Frequently Asked Questions
What is double declining balance?
It applies twice the straight-line rate to the remaining book value each year, front-loading depreciation. The tool switches to straight-line when that yields more, and never goes below salvage value.
Can I use this for Italian tax purposes?
The straight-line method matches standard ammortamento ordinario. However, Italian tax rules may allow different rates per asset category. Always verify with your commercialista.
What if salvage value is zero?
The entire asset cost is depreciated over the useful life. Common for software, office furniture, and equipment with no resale value.
