Define Amortization & Impairment?

Answer Posted / ravindra k. singh

Depreciation and amortization are types of tax deductions
used in a business venture. Depreciation applies to
tangible--that is visible, touchable--property like
buildings. Amortization applies to intangible property like
the good will associated with a well-known business name or
a recognized trademark. Amortization also carries an
additional meaning of paying off debt in installment
payments, such as with a mortgage.
