As Investopedia notes, “amortization is an accounting technique used to periodically lower the book value of a loan or intangible asset over a set period of time.”
The IRS’ guidance on how to amortize is as follows: “To figure your deduction, divide your total start-up or organizational costs by the months in the amortization period. The result is the amount you can deduct for each month.”
