Spanish term or phrase: amortizacion ajustada en plazo e importe
not sure I understand the concept here. This is part of a document discussing eco-friendly measures for the IT industry. Here's the context:

Un ejemplo muy ilustrativo serian empresas o departamentos de TI, fuertemente orientados a la produccion de software segun altos estandares de calidad y madurez o las software factories. En ellas podriamos reinterpretar y optimizar la implantacion de la aproximacion "3Rs" de la siguiente forma:

amortization adjusted in terms of timelines and amount


Explanation:
It sounds as though they are referring to the timelines of amortization for software. As per Spanish tax regulations, this is generally possible for one business year, unless the software costs exceed a certain limit and have to be written off in the course of more than one year.
