You may actually have different Federal and state depreciation rates, depending on the state’s laws and book depreciation. Tax depreciation is a statutory calculation as provided by the Code. Book depreciation, particularly for public companies, is intended to better reflect the true economic value of the property to better match revenue and expenses.
