Calculation of Depreciation based on Remianing Useful Life

Hi
I have a scenario in which depreciation percentage should be derived based on remaining useful life and it should remain same through out the remaining useful life.
For eg,
Take over date = 30.11.2010
Acquisition Date= 01.04.2009
Acquisition Amount = INR 200000
Depreciation Till 30.11.2010 = 70000 INR
Net Book Value as of 30.11.2010 = INR 130000
Total Useful Life = 4 Years or 48 months
Expired Useful Life = 1 year 9 months or 21 months
Remaining useful life = 27 months
Required Depreciation Per Month = 130000/27=4815
Derived Percentage = 4815/130000*100=3.71%
I have created a Base Method for calculation for Depreciation with Depreciation Method as "% from Remaining Life calculated from Depreciation Conversion Date". In Multilevel methods, I have assigned the Base Method as 24, Net Book Value
and maintained the check box for Remaining useful life.
However, the system is not calculating the rate as expected.

Hi Sanil
Have you done any settings in OAYF - recalculate dep for previous years (IMG> AA > Asset Data Transfer > Parameters for Data Transfer > Options)
For current year, it always does produce some difference due to rounding off, which should not be a big amount

Depreciation continues after the use life ending

Hi Experts,
My customer have begun July, 2007 acquisition with the depreciation from the
same month, and this asset use life is 3-years.
It should end use life in June of 2010 but at the monthly depreciation,
the depreciation continues until August.
I have suggested the customer to change the base method to 0016,
from JPS7 in phase 2, but it contradicts with the note 1057539.
Could you please give me some suggestion?

Hi Bernhard Kirchner ,
according to the note 1057539，
the Dep. after plnd.life end is choosed by "Yes",

Correcting useful life of an asset in previous year

Hi, We have implemented SAP last year in April at one of our sites. At the time of initial upload of assets, we made a mistake and some of the assets were uploaded with incorrect useful life. Till date every month we were running depreciation based on incorrect useful life. F.Year was closed in Dec 2005. Now auditors have detected this mistake. How do we fix this? Any suggestions...

hi sourabh
u can reset the closed fiscal year through "Asset acountingperiod end closingreverse" using this function u can reopen the fiscal yera either for selected depriciation areas or for all dep.Be careful you should reopen a fiscal year only for certain depreciation areaas, and do adjustment postings in those only. u cannot use standard transaction types post to all depriciation areas. u have to define ur own transaction types.
Change the field in asset master in last closed fiscal year. And start the depriciation program run in repeat run mode

Asset Depreciation - Depreciation to the date + Percentage from useful life

Hi Asset Accounting Experts,
I have a business requirement for depreciation as follows in depreciation calculation.
Aquisition Month    : Depreciation to the date
remaining Months   : Straight Line Depreciation - Ordinary: percentage from useful life
Retirement Month   : Depreciation To the date
Eg: Aquisition value = 12000     Useful Life 10 years i.e Depreciation per month 100
Asset Aquired in 20.01.2009 (Period 1)
Retired in 12.04.2009 (Period 4)
Depreciation should post as follows
Period 1 - 100*11/31 =   35.48
Period 2 -                      100.00
Period 3 -                      100.00
Period 4 - 100*12/30 =   40.00
I would really greatful if someone can help me on this.
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
You can define this in your depreciation key.
Check depreciation to day check box. System will calculate the depreciation from date of capitalization if you have define multilevel method , depreciation from capitalisation date. Also choose base method depreciation from useful life. Define life in Asset master , post the entry and check the depreciation behaviour.
Check with this system will post the depreciation as per your requirement.

Asset Legacy depreciation adjustment within useful life

Asset depreciation is being calculated on the useful life of the asset.
I am using replacement value (03) as the base value of calculating depreciation, when i am transferring legacy data of the asset, if there is a difference in the accumulated depreciation the system does not adjust it within the useful life of the asset.
If i check the indicator calculate depreciation after useful it will write off the asset completely but not in the assets useful life.
In case of new assets it is adjusting within the useful life of the asset, but not for legacy assets.
Is the system behaving correctly?
Regards.

Well there is depreciation after end of useful life. But i have selected to post depreciation after usfeul life. My question is that the system should adjust the depreciation within the useful life and not extend its useful life.
It is adjusting it for new assets created but not for legacy assets.

Different useful life in depreciation area - same depreciation

Hello,
I have the same depreciation key but different useful life for some assets master data, but when I calculate the depreciation, in the second depreciation area I have the same depreciation amounts like in the first depreciation area. The second depreciation area posts depreciation only...
Can you help me please?
Regards,
Mike

Hi Mike,
to answer this question you should at least provide detailed information about the depreciation key used. For instance depreciating with a stated percentage rate wouldn´t consider the useful life, same depreciation amount would be the result. And there are several other possibilities.

Useful Life in Dep Key "to the day"

Hi,
we have two depreciation areas one for IN gaap and the other for US GAAP. In GAAP has depreciation keys with "to the day" feature and the US GAAP has depreciation keys created with useful life feature.
Now the issue is since useful life has got no role in the case of IN GAAP, whenever we create asset we press enter enter and the same usefule life as per US GAAP get copied in the US GAAP also as it has no relevance for calculation.
The problem is that if i enter only period 1 as useful life for US GAAP( meaning that the asset is to be fully depreciated in one month for US GAAP purpose) and the same period 1 is entered in IN GAAP. then for IN GAAP my full asset is getting depreciated in 6 months wheras the depreciation key assigned to it is 13,91 wdv method( with to the day tick).
I changed the period 1 and made it 999 for IN GAAP purpose and tested it in test system and then system is showing correct values.
Can anyone throw some light on this issue as to why it is changing in case of useful life when the dep to the day is ticked in depreciation key.
Regards,

Changing Fixed Assets useful life according IAS rules

Hi all,
According to the new IAS rules (International Accounting Standards) when an asset's useful life (currently with straight line depreciation) is changed we have to distribute the "net book value" (remaining depreciation to be posted) between all the remaining months in the same proportion.
Currently, SAP standard calculates the depreciation as the difference between the posted depreciation throughout the previous months and the amount that should have been depreciated with the new useful life, and it assigns this calculated amount in the current month when the useful life is changed.
We have checked that the remaining depreciation to be posted can be distributed equally over the remaining periods of the fiscal year by marking the "smoothing" flag through transaction OAYR per company code, but we need this amount to be distributed over all the remaining periods for the new useful life (not only over the current fiscal year).
Please find below an example to try to clarify my query:
A fixed asset with str.line depreciation has the following values:
Acquisition value: 12000 eur
Useful life: 3 years
Depreciation per year: 4000 eur.
The asset starts to depreciate on 01.01.2008 and its useful life is
changed to 2 years on 01.07.2008. On that moment the net book value is
10000 eur.
SAP adjusts the difference between the amount that should have been
depreciated with the new useful life (3.000 eur) and the real amount
posted (2.000 eur) = 1.000 eur depending on the "smoothing" flag:
1. If the flag is not marked: SAP assigns 1.500 eur (500 eur (6.000/12)
+ 1.000 eur from the difference) on 01.07.2008
2. If the flag is marked: SAP distributes the difference between the
remaining periods of the current year (from July to December) and it
assigns 666,66 eur per month (500 eur + 166,66, obtained from 1.000
eur/6 months).
But we need the same depreciation amount distributed over the remaining
months: 10.000 eur/18 months = 555,55 eur/month.
Has anyone come through the same problem before?
The only solution I can think of is transferring the asset values to a new one. Or maybe a user exit.
Any feedback will be much appreciated.
Thank you very much in advance. Best regards

Hi Markus,
Sorry to come back to you regarding this question. Unfortunately we are not still on 6.0 so we can't take advantage of the new functionality.
I am now trying to make an asset transfer through transaction ABUMN but the new asset is taking into account the capitalisation value of the original asset rather than the net book value that we would need the system to consider to calculate the new depreciation values.
Do you know if there is a way to solve this?
Thanks a lot. Best regards

Asset useful life change

Hi,
I have asset with useful life 10 years. Expired useful life 5.3 years.
I am trying to change useful life to 5.6 years so that i can depreciate asset fully in coming 3 periods. Net book value should be ZERO after 3 months, and in Asset explorer also planned depreciation should be shown for 3 periods.
if i enter 5.6 years in useful life, the depreciation is calculating for 5.6 years and in planned also showing for 5.6 yrs instead of for 3 periods.
Below are the depreciation key parameters:Depreciation key 1st phase from the start of depreciation
Base method 0007 Ordinary depreciation from useful life
period control 007 01/06/02/02
Multilev.meth.    045    APC, any life
Chnge. method 5 change over after end of the useful life
Please help
Thanks
Hari

Hi,
1) Please see in AW01N in Parameters the following indicators:
Useful life     010 / 000
Exp. usefl life 005 / 003
Remaining life 004 / 007
If you change the Useful life is should be:
Useful life     005 / 006
Exp. usefl life 005 / 003
Remaining life 000 / 003
2) The depreciation will be corrected as a result of changing useful life.
How it is corrected?
It depends on your setting sin OAYR (smoothing or catch-Up). Please see following threat:
Smoothing- explaination.
3) You have created a change over method:
"5 Changeover after end of the useful life"
So, the depreciation changes into second phase:
Of you make the second phase similar to depr. key DG20 or DG30, the asset will be fully depreciated, after end of useful life.
But: the change over can only happen after end of a fiscal year.

Change in Useful life of asset in mid year, but the previous posted depreciation should not be changed

Dear Experts,
I have a requirement in one of my client, We need to extend the useful life of asset in mid of an asset fiscal year and the depreciation which was posted in the previous should not be changed.
Requirement:
Useful life of asset is to be extended after completing depreciation for 4 years and in-between the current asset fiscal year. Provided the present asset value has to be taken as the new book value of the asset and the depreciation posted henceforth to be posted based on the new asset value till the remaining useful life.
Previously posted depreciation should be unchanged.
Analysis:
1.      The fiscal Year followed - October to September.
2.      The useful life of asset will be changed, and the depreciated value posted till 31/mar 2014 will have the old depreciation value ( based on the original acquisition value)
3.      The Depreciation key used in of type LINR (linear), depreciation value will be calculated based on the Book value till the asset value becomes ZERO at the end of useful life of the asset.
4.      We can change the useful life of the asset at the end of a Asset fiscal year say FY- 2014, if this is done the existing configuration will take the Book value of the asset at the end of the Fiscal as the asset value and the new depreciation will be calculated based on the new useful life of the asset. The asset value will become ZERO at the end of the newly changed Useful Life.
5.      But the requirement is that the useful life of the asset will be changed exactly half way in between existing Asset fiscal (i.e., 31/03/2014), if this is done system will change the depreciation value based on the new useful life ( since the Dep Key is LINR), but the depreciation value will change from the fiscal start say October 2013 to September 2014 ), which will not satisfy the requirement of the client. Since the depreciation which is already posted from October 2013 to March 2014 should not be changed.
Note:
1. We are not willing to retire the asset and create a new asset with the remaining book value as asset value and start depreciation.
Kindly let me know if the requirement can be fulfilled without retiring the asset.

Dear All,
This requirement has been completed.
1. I created New Multi level valuation method with base 26 ( Net book value w/o Revaluation ).
2. New depreciation key was created and the above method was assigned to it. I never changed the Base method.
3. new interval was created in the depreciation area, with this created dep key and extended the useful life of the asset. The depreciation was calculated according to the requirement.
Originally the asset had useful life of 5 Years, I changed the asset useful life to 8 years now with new Depreciation key 2001.
Depreciation was already posted to the asset till 04- 2013 for an amount of 148.27 SAR.
Net Book value carried forward to 2013 = 1575.56 SAR
Depreciation already posted till 4th period =   148.27 SAR
Current Net book value after useful life extension           = 1427.29 SAR .
Now the new depreciation key 2001 with Multilevel method 201, will take this Net-book value as Asset value and will depreciate along the useful life of the asset till it becomes zero.
Planned depreciation of 2013 ( remaining 6 months) = 166.24 SAR
Planned depreciation of 2014 = 225.96 SAR
Planned depreciation of 2015 = 225.96 SAR
Planned depreciation of 2016 = 225.96 SAR
Planned depreciation of 2017 = 225.96 SAR
Planned depreciation of 2018 = 225.96 SAR
Planned depreciation of 2019 = 131.25 SAR
Total      = 1427.29 SAR ( the Asset value becomes zero at the end of its remaining useful life.
The previously posted depreciation from 01.01.2013 to 30.04.2013 was untouched.

Calculation of Asset Depreciation based on SLM or WDV

Hi,
In our group of companies, we are depreciating assets based on requirement with either SLM or WDV method.
Generally as per my understanding, system is calculating depreciation based on class (where either Straight line or Declining balance depreciation is maintained.) which has been maintained in depreciation key definition (Assignment of calculation methods).
I have observed that in some of depreciation key though it is blank in Class, system is calculating correct depreciation for either WDV or SLM method. Is there any other setting for selection of relevant depreciation method from which system is calculating correct depreciation?
Thanks,
Taral Patel

Hi,
I have seen base method of same depreciation key, in which below mentioned field values have been defined :
Type of depreciation : Ord. Depreciation
Dep. Method : Stated Percentage
Dep. after planned life end : No
Dep. below NB Value zero : No
Curb : No
From abovewhich field, system is bringing WDV as depreciation method into calculation?
Thanks,
Taral Patel

New Depreciation to start from Mar (not Jan) after change of useful life

Hi
Does anyoe has any solution or will there be changes to SAP B1's Fixed Asset?
Let me explain the full scenario as below:
1) Customer has Fixed Assest which has useful life of 25 years, i.e. 300 months.
2) The assets has been depreciated for a few months, e.g from July 2008 to Mar 2009. In FA Master Data, it shows the remaining useful life is 294.
3) From Mar 2009 onwards, the management decides that the userful life is to be 30 instead of 25. The past depreciated value is to remain. The new depreciated value is to be effective from Mar 2009 onwards.
Changes Done
1) In Fixed Asset Master file, under the General tab, a change has been made to the Useful life from 300 to 360. The remaining life is auto-change to 354.
2) Re-run the depreciation for Mar 2009.
3) The new depreciated value is re-calculated from Jan 2009 onwards and the adjustment is posted in Mar 2009.
What is required is that Jan 2009 to Feb 2009 should remain the original depreciated value. The new depreciated value should be adjusted from Mar 2009 onwards.
Please advise is there any solution or proposals.
Example
Asset value = 518749.95
Useful life = 300
Remaining Useful life = 294
Monthly Planned Depreciated Value = 1729.17, Dec Planned Depreciated value = 1729.13
After Changes Done
Asset value = 250000
Useful life = 360
Remaining Useful life = 354
Monthly Planned Depreciated Value = 1436.09, Dec Planned Depreciated value = 1436.06
Required
Asset value = 250000
Useful life = 360
Remaining Useful life = 354
Jan and Feb Planned Depreciated Value = 1729.17
Mar 2009 onwards, Planned Depreciated Value = 1404.95
Calculation = (518749.95 - 20750 - 3458.34)/352
where 20750 is the depreciated value for 2008 and 3458.34 is the depreciated value for Jan and Feb 2009.

Wrong depreciation calcualtion when we change useful life of an asset

Hi,
We change the useful life of an asset during the middle of the year. The deprecaiton calculation is not effecting correctly for the remaining useful life of an asset.
We are using stright line method of depreciaion. I will appreciate if any post some tips what is wrong .
Example:
Current State:
Acquisition value: 300,000
Acquisition date: 1/1/08
Useful life: 3 years
NBV 12/31/08: 200,000
NBV 6/30/09: 150,000
New life: 2 years, starting 7/1/2009
Current methodology:
NBV at 12/31/08 divided by new remaining life as of the beginning of the year (2009) $200,000 / 12 months = $16,667
Depreciation expense in 7/31/09: $66,669 ([16,667 * 7 months = 116,669] minus depreciation at old method booked for first 6 months of 2009 [200,000/24 = 8,333 * 6 = $50,000]). $116,669 u2013 50,000 = $66,669
Monthly Depreciation expense between 8/31/09-12/31/09: $16,667 / month
Future State:
Requested methodology:
NBV at 6/30/09 divided by remaining life as of the date of the change: (150,000/6mos) $25,000
Can any one explain what is the issue

Hi,
By default, any change in depreciation parameters will recalculate depreciation from the beginning. If you want to change depreciation terms on different phases, you may need to introduce a depreciation key which changes percentage in multi-level method.

Complete Depreciation in the Last Year of Useful life

I am trying to create following scenario in SAP using declining balance method where the percentage is calculated from the useful life...example below;
A printer has APC of 100 TRY and itu2019s useful life is 3 years,
The depreciation percentage is calculated as 1/3 = 0.33 * 2 = 0.66
However if the percentage rate is greater than 50% than 50% is the maximum taken as the annual percentage rate.
2010u2019s depreciation = 100*50%=50 TRY (NBV balance 50 TRY)
2011u2019s depreciation = 50*50%=25 TRY (balance 25 TRY)
2012u2019s depreciation =25 TRY (last yearu2019s depreciation = net book value u2013 accumulated depreciation)
When trying to replicate this scenario in the system; it does the following;
2010u2019s depreciation = 100*50%=50 TRY (NBV balance 50 TRY)
2011u2019s depreciation = 50*50%=25 TRY (balance 25 TRY)
2012u2019s depreciation =12.5 TRY
2013u2019s depreciation = 12.5 TRY
Even though the useful life of the asset is only 3 years u2013 it carries forward the remaining depreciation to the next fiscal year...this is not what I want. Do you know if there is a parameter in the depreciation key that forces the final year of useful life to take the remaining depreciation amount.

Hi Bernard,
Yes - I have a changeover applied in my first phase to "changeover at end of useful life" then in the next phase I have "changeover in planned life" with immediate depreciation.
The problem with this is that the remaining depreciation is only applied in the next year...however I need it to be applied in the last year fo useful life. The changeover options do not allow for "changover within planned life" unless a percentage is supplied for when net book value reaches a certain percentage.
However, I cannot determine a percentage as the useful life of my assets will always change...resulting in the NBV percentage to be different by asset class..
If there is a way to do this without activating the BADI that would be great.
Regards
S.Vekaria
