Your use of either the General Depreciation System (GDS) or the Alternative Depreciation System (ADS) to depreciate property under MACRS determines what depreciation method and recovery period you use. You generally must use GDS unless you are specifically required by law to use ADS or you elect to use ADS.
The quetzal is a beautiful animal. Its scientific name is Pharomachrus mocino. Quetzals can be anywhere from 10-14 inches from bill to base of tail. The Quetzals are much larger than that though, because they have tails that may trail more than 3 feet behind their body.
The Aztecs called them ÄyÅtÅchtli [aËjoËËtoËtÍ¡ÊtÍ¡É¬i] , Nahuatl for turtle-rabbit: ÄyÅtl [ËaËjoËtÍ¡É¬] (turtle) and tÅchtli [ËtoËtÍ¡ÊtÍ¡É¬i] (rabbit). About 10 extant genera and 20 extant species of armadillo have been described, some of which are distinguished by the number of bands on their armour. Their average length is about 75 cm (30 in), including tail. The giant armadillo grows up to 150 cm (59 in) and weighs up to 54 kg (119 lb), while the pink fairy armadillo is a diminutive species, with an overall length of 13â15 cm (5â6 in).
