Presumably you mean when doing tax accounting. Depreciation is an expense. Expense lowers income, which lowers the tax payable. However, as the same amount of depreciation will be taken on an asset overall, accelerated only meaning a larger amount is taken quicker...in latter years the benfit reverses...that is the amount of book (or non accelerated depreciation) is higher than the accelerated one, and less tax expense is received. hence, the difference is to lower taxable income at first and increase it later...providing cash (less tax) sooner, and requiring more cash later. So the time value of the cash savings sooner is the real benefit.
