Asset value for Calculation of Tax Depreciation

We have been told that many of the assets created as of 1/1/2008 have a different (lower) tax value than their beginning book value.  Book value is correct for standard book depreciation.     Is there a process to update the tax value of assets created in SAP similar to the transaction AS92 used to update values for Converted Assets?
It was suggested that we use the method of Unplanned Depreciation tcode ABAA with TTY 642/652 to change the tax value of the asset.  When I tested this I found the various tax depreciation methods were calculated based on the beginning book value for year 1 and not using taking the special depreciation into consideration until subsequent years.   This is using Depreciation Area 10, MACRS, Dep. Key M200.
Is there a better method of altering asset book value for tax purposes or a better way to alter the tax depreciation calculation so it takes Unplanned Depreciation into consideration during year 1?
Current simplified tax depreciation example:
Beg. BV $1,000
unplanned dep posted $100
tax depreciation for year 1 $100
tax depreciation for years 2-10 $88.88
The preferred depreciation is $90 years 1 - 10.
Thanks for your assistance,
Jeff

I think I had the cart before the horse on this problem.  The correct way to look at this is what is the best way to get the correct "Net Book Value" and not the correct tax depreciation posting as it never actually gets booked.  
By knowing the incorrect Beginning BV, the rate depreciation is applied in year 1 and finally the desired Net BV value at the end of year 1 for tax purposes I am able to calculate the correct Unplanned Depreciation for tax to make everything work out correctly.
correct beginning tax BV $1,200
Beginning Asset Book Value $1,800
depreciation $360 (20% of BV)
Unplanned depreciation  $?
Net BV for tax at end of Yr1  $960 ;  or  1,200 - (1,200*.2)
With the know values above that makes my unplanned depreciation for Yr 1 to be $480.  Year 1 and all following years depreciate correctly after the Unplanned Depreciation is posted.
I am marking this as resolved unless someone sees an error in my thinking.
Thanks,
Jeff

  • How to upload two different asset values for Book & Tax Depre in FA

    Hello all
    kindly let me know how to resolve a situation where we have different methods of calculating Depreciation. For Example SLM for Book Depreciation and Diminishing method for Tax Depreciation.
    To calculate depreciation we use straight line method for book depreciation and diminishing value method for Tax depreciation. In this case, we have 2 different asset values to calculate book and tax depreciation.
    Since SAP allows to upload only one asset value (Gross book value), I get correct book depreciation value but incorrect value for tax depreciation as the tax depreciation is calculated based on gross book value instead of net book value (gross book value less accumulated depreciation value).
    For Eg
    FOR THE FIRST YEAR 
    BOOK DEPRECIATION:
    Asset Value = 1000
    Depreciation Method : SLM
    Depreciation rate is 10%
    Depreciation Amount = 100
    TAX DEPRECIATION:
    Asset Value = 1000
    Depreciation Method : DIMINISHING METHOD
    Depreciation rate is 15%
    Depreciation Amount = 150
    FOR THE SECOND YEAR
    BOOK DEPRECIATION:
    Asset Value = 1000
    Depreciation Method : SLM
    Depreciation rate is 10%
    Depreciation Amount = 100
    TAX DEPRECIATION:
    Asset Value = 850
    Depreciation Method : DIMINISHING METHOD
    Depreciation rate is 15%
    Depreciation Amount = 127.5
    KINDLY LET ME KNOW HOW TO UPLOAD THE PAST DATA WITH TWO DIFFERENT ASSET VALUES (IE 1000 & 850)  FOR THE ABOVE.

    Thanks in Advance....
    Suresh

    Hi Suresh,
    I have set up a new depreciation are for tax reason you have to do the following steps:
    V_T093C_08   Specify Transfer Date/Last Closed Fiscal Year
    (Take over date, last day of the last fiscal year)
    VC_T093U03  Specify Sequence of Depreciation Areas Set-up area 67
    (plase the new depreciation area on top)
    VC_ANKB_01 Determine Depreciation Areas in the Asset Class
    (Assign new depreciation area to asset classes wirh default values
    V_TABWA Define Transaction Types for Acquisitions
    ( Created transaction type to make a acquisition posting in only the new depreciation area)
    V_T093_00 Define Depreciation Areas
    (created new depreciation Area)
    To run AFBN - New Depreciation Area to ad the new depreciation area's to the existing assets
    I created 2 LSMW's
    1. To up-date the assets from last year with the correct depreciation key, depreciation start date (when you chage this you have to change exp. UL live to blanc, SAP recalculate this) Do this upload not for deactivated assets this year. (the first collum is than not the new depr area in AS92
    2. To uplad the acquisition value for the Capitalized assets this year (using the new tranaction type to post only in the new area) transaction ABSO.
    The best is to test this first and to do year-end closing for this year.

  • Calculation of Tax Depreciation - India

    Hi,
    We are following the New GL Accounting setup to our US based client in India.
    My Leading Ledger (US) is Jan u2013 Dec and Non-leading Ledger (India) is April u2013 March.
    We also created different Fiscal Year variants (Year Dependent) as S1 and IN for both the Co codes.
    I have defined and activated Non-leading ledger for India Company code.
    All the transactions were posting correctly as per Leading and Non-leading ledgers except Tax Depreciation in Fixed Assets.
    I was able to post correct depreciation for India Company Act Depreciation area with a stated percentage. But the Tax depreciation area calculation is incorrect.
    Required Depreciation Calculation for Tax Depreciation Area as below:
    For Acquires & Additions:
    Rule1: If it is >=180 days (as per Non-leading ledger Fiscal year) the system should calculate depreciation as stated percentage. Eg: 10%
    Rule2:
    If it is <180 days (as per Non-leading ledger Fiscal year) the system should calculate depreciation of 50% on stated percentage. Eg: Stated percentage is 10%, then it should be 5%.
    I already copied India standard setting IT & NL to my fiscal year variant in Calender assignments of Period controls. But when I tried to post the Tax Depreciation in the month of March as per Non-leading ledger, the system is calculating full Depreciation as per Rule1 instead of 50% of stated Percentage in Rule2.
    Can any one of you kindly advice how to setup the Multi levels methods and Period controls for Tax Depreciation key in Indian Tax Depreciation area as per above requirement. I have been working on this since one week. Please help me.
    Thanks for the help.
    Regards,
    JBC

    I am not sure if this work.. but give it a try.
    In your multi-level method line 1 put Acq yr = 9999, Year = 999, Per = 6, Percent = 50
    line 2 put Acq yr = 9999, Year = 999, Per = 12, Percent = 10
    Now what i dont understand from your question is that is this rule for the first acquisition year only?
    If so, also try with Acq yr = 9999, Year = 1 (so only the first acq yr will get calculated based on the percentage).
    Try this in your sandbox and let me know if it works or not!!

  • Change of base value for calculation of Excise.

    Hi All,
    I have a senario which needs to be maaped in SAP. Please help in maaping the senario.
    We are purchasing Oil from manufacturer like IOCL & HPCL. The contract is such that, the excise is calculated on the proce of the oil on the day the chalan has been created. Eg:-
    Contract base price is 100
    Ed@ 14.42%                14.42
    But on the day of despatch the base price is 110, hence the excise will be calculated on 110 only not on 100.
    So in PO we want to maintain a condition apart from basic price PBXX and PB00 on which only the excise will be calculated. The excise shouldnt be calculated on PBXX & PB00.
    So please tell me how to map this in pricing procedure using routine.
    Regards,
    Mohar

    Hi,
    I hope your requirement can be met using the manual Excise condition - JEXC in MM Pricing Procedure by maintaining  the subtotal as 5.
    Enter the JEXC condition in PO Item condition manually & enter the amount on which excise needs to be calculated.
    Based on subtotal 5 the value will flow to tax procedure automatically & excise will be calculated on the same.
    Hope its clear.
    Thanks & Regards,

  • Asset value for Credit memo

    Hi Experts,
    I'm new to this forum, Need some help on how the Ordinary depreciation calculated for credit memo.
    It is Valuated Goods receipt, asset capitalized before the IR. However, there was a difference in value between GR/IR and the different value automatically got adjusted in APC transaction and also credit memo passed for the difference.
    My question here is credit memo value is 2.46 but corresponding depreciation value is 22.14.
    Note: It's a Low value asset, useful life is 1 Month. Entire depreciation already posted for GR Value which means more than APC value.
    GR value           : 1192.20 -----
    APC value         :  1189.74------
    Ordinary dep     :   1192.20---
    (posted value)
    Thanks,

    Hi Mukthar,
    Thanks for your reply.
    However, the credit memo value is only 2.46 USD, depreciation getting reversed each month 2.46 USD and total depreciation reversal value is 22.14 (USD).
    Just want to understand the logic behind it.
    Thanks,

  • Report asset values for segment?

    Hi all,
    so I have been trying to see if it is possible to get a list of all assets but grouped by segment. At the moment, during posting the system knows which segment to post to according to cost center. Also, according to cost center, it is easy to get all assets grouped by profit centers. That is done by creating a new sort variant. But when I want to do that also for segment I can not find a segment field? I read through numerous posts here, notes, help, but could not find how to do it. Some help suggests to "Activate segment reporting" in customizing, but I can not find that option at all? I tried checking field status variants to see if this field is suppressed somehow, but it is not. I tried with activating account assignment objects but there also segment field does not exist.
    Any ideas?
    Thank you!
    D.

    Hi ,
    First and foremost thing that if we are talking of Segment wise report then in that case following possibilty has to be there :
    1. Relevant entries in ANLZ should be there with a value in the field SEGMENT .
    2. Using the T code OAVI you can make you own sort varient where in you can select ANLAV - SEGMENT as sort level .
    3. By making the settings as mentioned above , you can use various reports like S_ALR_870* with your sort varient for achieving your requirement .
    Hope this helps .
    Regards ,

  • Asset report S_ALR_87011963 is not showing the asset values for perion 08

    Hi,
         The internal order number is 400011.The amount 38,300 were booked on this order. I have settled  38,050 into 7 assets hence the balance is 250 in this internal order (Work in progress 100050).
    When i check the Asset expolorer, there it is showing me this remaining value. But when i run any asset report, say Transaction code - S_ALR_87011963(Asset balances) with report date as 30/05/2008 for period 8, the asset 100050 is showing as NIL Value. But if i run it with date as 30/09/2008 for period 12, then it is showing the balance amount.Our fiscal year is frorm Oct- Sep.
    I don't understand why this difference is coming. It should show the balance 250 at the end of period 8.
    The last input on this internal order was in March 08 when I transfered most of the costs to the assets.So no reason to have a difference depending on the date of the report.
    The internal order 400011 is having status as Released at present.
    Can anyboday help me on this. Points will awarded.
    Earliest reply will be highly appreciated.

    For reporting Purpose My Client would like to see Monthly Balances of Open items for Initial Upload,"is this same as Month to Month Upload you advised above"?
    What is the Difference b/w Month to Month ORr Just one Amount as total balance uploaded to SAP? which is Best Practice before Initial Upload?

  • Taking display value for calculations using structures in Bex query

    Hi
    I am using Bex analyzer to do a simple report with two key figures ‘Sales’ and ‘Plans’ from cube and two more calculated key figures ‘Abs Deviation’ and ‘% error’. The report displays at category and product levels. Category is higher and one category contains multiple products.
    The simple formulas for the two calculated KF are,
    1. Abs Deviation = Abs (Sales – Plans).
    Abs Deviation is set with the property Calculate result as ‘summation’ to add up Abs deviations at product level to show at Category level.
    2. % Error = Abs Deviation / Plan.
    The issue is with the % Error value at category level. At product level, all the values are showing correctly.
    To illustrate the issue with a simple test case,
    CategryProductSale-PlanAbs Dev----%Error
    C1--P1--100-60---40--
    67%
    C1--P2---50120---70--
    58%
    C1 Total--150180---110--
    17%
    Observe that in the output the calculation for ‘%Error’ at product level is correct all the way. But the summary
    calculation for ‘Error%’ i.e. C1 total which is showing as 17% is wrong. The correct value as per the formula should be 110/180 = 61%.
    SAP, through OSS replied that it is not a bug but the default behavior of OLAP calculation. OLAP processor first calculates the formula for % Error and then shows the display value at C1 total for Abs Dev. Meaning, ‘% Error’ is calculated first and next the summation for Abs dev is displayed. Abs dev 110 at C1 level is only a display value but not the value taken for % Error at C1 level. Instead OLAP calculates the Abs Dev at C1 level by Total sale – Total plan = 180 – 150 = 30 and the % Error calculation takes this 30 value in the formula and gives % Error = 30/180 * 100 = 17% at C1 level. But 17% doesn't make any sense to the user. Further, to display value of 61% at % Error at C1, it is being advised that by defining two structures, I can force the calculation to take display value of 110 in the % Error calculation at C1 level by using the cell editor.
    Has any body tried to achieve similar result as above by defining two structures and cell editor in the query? If so, can you please throw some pointers of how to define two structures in a query and how to force the % Error at category level to take the display value of 110 in the calculation? I have gone through the documentaion on structures and cell editor but the approach is not at all clear.
    Thanks in advance for your suggestions.

  • User - defined functions for calculating the taxes of state and country

    hi expects,
        how can write user-defined function in message mapping in which i want to calculate the states taxes (2500) and country taxes (5000) and give the result as grand total in output.please help me?

    Hi,
    Activities
    1. To create a new user-defined function, in the data-flow editor, choose Create New Function (This
    graphic is explained in the accompanying text), which is located on the lower left-hand side of the
    screen. In the menu, choose Simple Function or Advanced Function.
    2. In the window that appears, specify the attributes of the new function:
    Name
    Technical name of the function. The name is displayed in the function chooser and on the data-flow
    object.
    Description
    Description of how the function is used.
    Cache
    Function type (see above)
    Argument Count
    In this table, you specify the number of input values the function can process, and name them. All
    functions are of type String.
    3. In the window that appears, you can create Java source code:
    a. You can import Java packages to your methods from the Imports input field, by specifying them
    separated by a comma or semi-colon:
    You do not need to import the packages java.lang., java.util., java.io., and java.lang.reflect. since
    all message mappings require these packages and therefore import them. You should be able to
    access standard JDK and J2EE packages of the SAP Web Application Server by simply specifying the
    package under Import. In other words, you do not have to import it as an archive into the Integration
    Repository. You can also access classes of the SAP XML Toolkit, the SAP Java Connector, and the
    SAP Logging Service (see also: Runtime Environment (Java-Mappings)).
    In addition to the standard packages, you can also specify Java packages that you have imported as
    archives and that are located in the same, or in an underlying software component version as the
    message mapping.
    b. Create your Java source text in the editor window or copy source text from another editor.
    4. Confirm with Save and Close.
    5. User-defined functions are limited to the message mapping in which you created the function. To
    save the new function, save the message mapping.
    6. To test the function, use the test environment.
    The new function is now visible in the User-Defined function category. When you select this category,
    a corresponding button is displayed in the function chooser pushbutton bar. To edit, delete, or add the
    function to the data-flow editor, choose the arrow next to the button and select from the list box
    displayed.

  • Cumulative Value for calculation in Formula

    Hi All,
    We have a requirement to use a formula based onthe cumulation of Keyfigures in the report.
    The scenario is like this
    KF1  KF2    ***(KF1)  ***(KF2)     Fornula1 = ***(KF1) / *** (KF2)
    10     2       10                     2           5

    30     4       60                     9           6.7
    40      5      100                   14          7.1
    while we can display cumlative values of KF1 and KF2 in reports by using the calculation tick the cumulative valuses cannot be used in formula
    Is there any work around

    Hi,
    As you now know that cumulated Kfs cannot used in a formula, why don u try creating cumulated Kfs using some Time chracteristics?
    Like this you can hard code the cumulation.
    You can use SAp exit variables on Time characteristics to keep these values dynamic.
    Hope this helps,
