depreciable

Subject to amortization

Depreciable describes assets whose value can be reduced over time for accounting or tax purposes.

A depreciable asset—like equipment, vehicles, or buildings—loses value through wear, obsolescence, or age, and that decline can be deducted as a business expense: The accountant classified the machinery as depreciable property.
