Amortization
(redirected from amortise)

   Also found in: Dictionary/thesaurus, Medical, Legal, Encyclopedia, Wikipedia, Hutchinson 0.01 sec.
Amortization
1. The paying off of debt in regular installments over a period of time.

2. The deduction of capital expenses over a specific period of time. Similar to depreciation, it is a method of measuring the consumption of the value of long-term assets like equipment or buildings.

Notes:
Think of amortization (the deduction of capital expenses) as a way to claim the decrease in value on your car every year. If you bought your car new for $20,000 and after the first year it is worth $17,000, theoretically you could amortize the $3,000 for tax and financial purposes.


Amortization
The repayment of a loan by installments.
