One of the questions says this statement is true. Could someone explain it to me? - The matching principle supports the use of accelerated depreciation methods rather than the striaght-line method. I don’t see how it can say “rather than”…
I think it refers to the fact that the efficiency of an asset- equipment needs to be matched with the depreciation method you know that a new equipment will perform better, more efficient in the first years, and the principle says that you should deduct more depreciation.
