Sec. 6. (a) After the allocation of adjusted cost of depreciable tangible personal property, as provided in section 5 of this rule, it will be necessary to determine the cost by year of acquisition for each pool. The number of years that are required to be segregated by year of acquisition will depend upon the particular pool.

(b) Each pool is required to be segregated as follows:

1. (1) Pool No. 1 requires the cost to be determined by year of acquisition for the three (3) years immediately preceding the assessment date. The balance of the cost of the assets in this pool will be includable in the fourth category.
2. (2) Pool No. 2 requires the cost by year of acquisition be determined for the six (6) years preceding the assessment date. The balance of the cost would be includable in the seventh category.
3. (3) Pool No. 3 requires that cost by year of acquisition be determined for the ten (10) years preceding the assessment date. The balance of such account would be includable in the eleventh category.
4. (4) Pool No. 4 requires that the cost by year of acquisition be determined for the twelve (12) years preceding the assessment date with the balance of the cost of such pool includable in the thirteenth category.

(c) For Indiana property tax purposes it will be presumed that the disposal of depreciable personal property occurs on a first-in, first-out basis unless the taxpayer establishes that such was not the case. Therefore, absent evidence to the contrary, all disposals will be deemed to occur from the remaining category in each pool.
