A biliary stricture is any blockage in the biliary tree, whether due to an obstruction within the ducts, damage of the bile duct walls, or deformities. A blocked bile duct will affect the outflow of bile from the liver and cause it to back up in the biliary tree (cholestasis).
Some companies prefer to use capital leases as the accelerated depreciation allows them to expense the assets (for tax purposes) more quickly up front instead of evenly over the life of the lease. There are also interest expense components of the lease payments they will be able to separately expense.
What is to 'Capitalize'. Capitalize is an accounting method used to delay the recognition of expenses by recording the expense as a long-term asset. In general, capitalizing expenses is beneficial as companies acquiring new assets with a long-term lifespan can spread out the cost. Companies are allowed to take expenses they incur in the current period and deduct them over the long-term life of the asset.
