Issue with DEP KEY....

[Former Member]

HI Gurus,

I am using the DEP Key (ZADH). It has 3 phases maintained. Change over method is (1 - Changeover when straight-line dep. is higher (Germany) ), since the deprecation has reached 2nd phase i want to know how is straight line dep calculated. Is it Acquasation Value * 10 %, or is there any other way to calculate straight line method.

Regards.

Hi,

Following Methods will effect the Straight Line Depreciation and Percentage

Base Method:

In the Base Method we will define depreciation method which determines calculation of depreciation.

1. Percentage from Useful Life.: If this indicator is set depreciation will be calculated from the useful life maintained in the respective asset master data.

Ex: Asset Useful Life = 10 Years

Asset Values = 10000

Yearly Depreciation = (Asset Value/No of Years)

2. Stated Percentage: The percentage maintained in the Multi Level Method will be considered.

Multi Level Method: The Base value field controls on which value depreciation should calculated.

Ex: Acquisition Value or Net Book Value

Period Control Method: Controls start date of depreciation for various asset transactions like asset acquisition, retirement

All the above mentioned methods controls depreciation rate and calculation amount.

Hence, please check all the above settings. Still if you need any clarification provide m e the details of depreciation Key.

Dear Friends....thank you so much for your reply...for you better understanding i am giving you the configuration that has been maintained for my DEP Key.

Phase1-->Base method (007-Ordinary: percentage from life after end of life);Decl.-bal. method (001 - 0.00x / 0.0000% / 0.0000%); Prd cont( Z03 - 07/07/07/07) Multilev.meth (013 - APC, any life); Chnge. method (1 - Change over when straight line is higher in Germany); Change over % - 0

Phase 2--> Same as Phase 1 only difference is Multilev.meth.(001 - 0.0000%)

Mulit level Method 13 has base value 01 (Acquisation Value) & Mulit level Method has base value 22 (Net book Value) and Rem LIfe check box is ticked here.

My issue is that for DEP for the 1 year system is talking Net book Value instead of Acquisation Value..

hi,

The dep is calculated based on the base method if it based on the acqusition value or based on the net book value depends on the base method and the dep calculation will get affected based on period control method . Kindly provide details whether the second phase is also based on the straight line depreciation .
