Following are different methods of depreciation: 1 - Straight line method 2 - Diminishing balance method 3 - Double declining method 4 - Sum of years method 5 - MACRS
Straight line depreciation method is that method in which fixed amount of depreciation is charged to all fiscal years in which that asset is used.
The formula for a straight line depreciation method is the Cost minus the Salvage Value over the Life in Number of Periods which will equal Depreciation.
Accelerated depreciation is method in which double rate for depreciation is used as compare to straight line method.

MACRS is better because it allows you to take bigger deductions in the early years of the project which is a time value benefit.

Formula for straight line depreciation is as follows: Depreciation = (Cost of asset - salvage value) / useful life of asset
Straight line depreciation method is that method in which fixed amount of depreciation is charged to all fiscal years in which that asset is used.
The formula for a straight line depreciation method is the Cost minus the Salvage Value over the Life in Number of Periods which will equal Depreciation.
The main difference between straight line depreciation and double declining depreciation methods is the way they allocate the cost of an asset over its useful life. Straight line depreciation spreads the cost evenly over the asset's life, while double declining depreciation front-loads the depreciation expense, resulting in higher depreciation in the early years and lower depreciation in later years.
