Calculate the impact of a $100,000 asset with a 5-year life and 21% tax rate using straight-line depreciation, assuming an EBITDA of $50,000.

The annual depreciation is $20,000, resulting in a depreciation shield of $4,200. The net cash flow for the year is $39,580.

Compare straight-line and accelerated depreciation for a $50,000 asset over 4 years with a 25% tax rate and $30,000 EBITDA.

Accelerated depreciation provides a higher initial tax shield compared to straight-line, resulting in greater early-stage cash preservation.

How much total cash will be available over the lifecycle of a $200,000 asset with a 10-year life, 20% tax rate, and $80,000 EBITDA using straight-line depreciation?

The total lifecycle cash flow is $640,000, with a total depreciation shield of $40,000 over the 10-year period.

Depreciation is a non-cash expense that reduces taxable income. This creates a depreciation shield, which reduces the amount of tax paid, thereby increasing the net cash flow available to the business.
