Acceleration Altitude 400ft AGL

Hello!

In my company we do the cleanup with the 737-800 in 1500ft AGL normally. I was reading about the 400ft agl that some do it there. since you need 2,4% in this segment how can you accelerate at 400ft agl? Where does this magical number of 400ft come from? so is it right that we compensate the 1,2% in the third segment with the accelration since we climb to 1500ft? means the 1100ft are converted in the acceleration?

Thanks folks
