the time-weighted writing off is begun.
In the year of acquisition, etc.
De terminologie is wat vrij in de zin verwerkt, maar de woorden die ik gevonden heb lijken me duidelijk.

written off in the order of acquisition
The Dutch sentence is terrible!
"tijdgelang" does not exist as a tzerm (VanDale / Kramer's). What I think they mean, is a combination of
gelang = according to + time.
If yopu add this to "verkrijging" then you arrive at "according to the year of acquisition". And "afschrijving" is a write-off.

There is no mention of the term "tijdgelang" in any of my dictionaries.
Alternatives are:
naar gelang de tijd
naar gelang van de tijd
Two bilingual sites with the terms:

Whereas 'weight' is taken to mean the weight of the cold carcase; whereas this is calculated by applying to the result of the weighing a conversion coefficient to be determined; whereas that coefficient may vary depending on the time between the weighing and the sticking of the pig; whereas an adjustment of the coefficient should therefore be allowed;

Translation of the terms:
according to time
in proportion to time
depending on time
English phraseology:
written off in required time frame
written off after a lapse of time
written off over time
write off in good time
Examples:

Hope this helps a bit.

straight line depreciation
Ik denk dat men hier met "naar tijdgelang afschrijven" eigenlijk "lineair afschrijven" bedoelt. Eurodicautom geeft:
lineaire afschrijving:
straight line depreciation
straight-line method
depreciation straight line method
Definitie (eveneens volgens Eurodic):
a method of computing depreciation and consists of making provisions by which the sums,actually or theoretically set aside for depreciation,are computed at an equal periodic rate by bividing the depreciable base by the number of years or period of expected life.Thus,with a base of 1000 dollars and an estimated life of 10 years,the annual rate would be 10 per cent to produce an annual charge of 100 dollars and a total of 1000 dollars in 10 years
Groeten,
Carla
