depreciation tax shield. Definition. A means of reducing income tax payments by deducting depreciation from the taxable income. Depreciation tax shield is computed as the amount of depreciation multiplied by the tax rate. Example, if the annual depreciation is $1,000 and the tax rate is 10%; the corresponding tax shield will be $100.
Depreciation offsets income from your rental property on a dollar-for-dollar basis. For example, if you have $100,000 of income and $30,000 in depreciation, your taxable income becomes $70,000. If you're paying a 33 percent marginal tax rate, that would reduce your tax liability by $10,000.
