What is non-recoverable depreciation?

Answer 1

Non-Recoverable depreciation is depreciation that is not recoverable, that is the obvious answer. In most states a standard Replacement Cost Policy will pay an insured for the replacement cost minus deprecation. As long as you replace the item within a specified amount of time which is typically anywhere from 90 days to a year, you will be able to recover the amount that was depreciated. In a Actual Cash Value type policy this depreciation is NOT recoverable. It is very important to know what type of policy you have before you need it!
