Tax Depreciation Calculation for Malaysia

Hi Guys,
We have a requirement to calculate Tax Depreciation for Malaysia with reference to the Capital Allowance.The scenario is like this:
For Asset Class say Office Equipments Initial Allowance is 20% and Annual Allowance is 10%
That means depreciation will be calculated @20% on the acquisition value immediately upon acquisition for one time. Again depreciation @10% per annum will be calculated on the acquisition value for the entire useful life of the asset from the date of acquisition.
Example: Asset is capitalised at MYR 10,000 on 1.1.2010
First Initial Depreciation would be: 20% on 10000= 2000
Annual Depreciation for 2010 would be : 10% on 10000= 1000  and this will be same for next 8 years.
Depreciation Method is SLM
In this case changeover should happen within the year.
Can you please suggest how to create a depreciation key in SAP for this.
Early respponse would be appreciated.
Regards,
Chandra

Hi Chandra,
Have you found the solution for this scenario?
Thanks

  • Depreciation calculation for Indian Tax Depreciation Area - Fixed Assets

    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.
    My Leading ledger Fiscal year: Jan u2013 Dec (Year dependend)
    And Non-leading ledger (India) Fiscal year: April u2013 March (Year dependend)
    I was able to post correct depreciation for leading and non-leading ledger Depreciation areas with a stated percentage. But the calculation of Tax depreciation area is incorrect.
    As per client requirement, Tax depreciation area is setup only reporting purpose and no Depreciation posting.
    Required Depreciation Calculation for Tax Depreciation Area:
    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%.

  • Tax depreciation calculation requirement

    Hi
    I am working on tax depreciation area for new roll out project. In this requirement we need to give two allowances in the year of purchase (acquisition) of the asset, one is Initial allowance and another one is yearly allowance. Then subsequence years only yearly allowance. In the last year may be on sold or scrapped there is no allowance.
    I am very much comfortable till first year of acquisition and subsequence years with change over method. But I am struggling with the last year, because it is not only on the end of useful life, but also for sales and scrapping in between.
    Please help me.
    Regards
    Padma

    Please add standard depreciation area "10"  Federal Tax ACRS/MACRS. In OADB, the GL posting indicator should be set to "0".
    Make sure this depreciation area is in all asset master records.
    Then execute any asset report / depreciation simulation reports to get the depreciation per Federal Tax calculation.

  • Config of Group assets - Tax Depreciation Calculation : India

    Dear Seniors,
    can you please explain the configuration of the Group assets and how exactly the tax depreciation calculation in India happens for the individual assets with scheme of entries.
    Thanks and Regards
    Sathish

    Hi,
    In India, depreciation on assets for the purpose of computation of net income as per the Income Tax (IT) Act 1961 is calculated over a block of assets instead of individual assets as allowed under the Companies Act 1956. Asset acquisitions and retirements are managed over the block level. The IT Act prescribes certain rates of depreciation to be used under the Written down Value (WDV) method over these asset blocks to compute depreciation.
    The following are the customization settings that may be followed in the R/3 system in order to manage your assets in the income tax depreciation area.
    1. Copy the standard chart of depreciation 0IN as provided by SAP and create your own chart of depreciation.
    2. Use the depreciation area 15 for the purpose of management of assets under the IT Act. Make it statistical in nature. (Reference Transaction Code: OADB). Do not check the box negative net book value.
    3. Specify that the Income Tax depreciation area takes over the APC from the book but not make it identical (Reference Transaction Code: OABC).
    4. Create an asset class for the purpose of income tax blocks. This asset class will be used to create only group assets. (Reference Transaction Code:  OAOA)
    5. Specify that the depreciation area for income tax can be managed only for group assets. (Reference Transaction Code: OAYM). This would mean that depreciation for this depreciation area would be computed only at group asset level.
    6. Specify that the asset class defined in (b) above will be used for creating group assets only. (Reference Transaction Code: OAAX)
    7. Two period control methods (IT and NL) have been defined in the system for determination of start or the end of depreciation calculation at the time of a fixed asset acquisition or retirement. You may use these period control methods while creating the depreciation keys for the purpose of IT depreciation.
    Calendar assignments have been made for the above mentioned period control methods in order to reflect valuation requirements as per the Income Tax Act (Transaction Code: OAVH). You may create your own period control methods depending on the fiscal year variant you use. The period control methods supplied are based on the fiscal year variant V3.
    8. Depreciation Keys: The following depreciation keys have been created in the system. They correspond to the income tax blocks that are prescribed under Indian tax laws. They are as below:
    Depreciation Keys:
    1. IN1 - Tax Depreciation - 5% -
    I Hope it will give you some basic guidance.

  • Change in start date of tax depreciation not for posting in mid of year

    Hi Experts,
    Tax depreciation area is not for posting. The fiscal year is from Jan to Dec. I want to calculate tax depreciation from May 2011 based on Net Book Value of tax depreciation as on 30.04.2011. But once I change the start date of tax depreciation in asset master to 01.05.2011, the system ignores the previous depreciation so I am not getting the NBV of tax depreciation of 30.04.2011.
    Is any setting is required to get this. I can not do changes in posting rules since this tax depreciation is not for posting any thing.
    The fiscal year 2010 is closed and NBV of tax depreciation as on 31.12.2010 of one asset is 80000, If I change the start date of tax depreciation from 1.1.2011 then system correcly take NBV of 31.12.2010 for further depreciation calculation. But if i change the start date of depreciation in between of year the system is calculating depreciation based on NBV of 31.12.2010 but ignores the tax depreciation from 1.1.2011 to 30.04.2011, which I previously run using AFAB.
    Need your assistance to know is it feasible to do this.
    Thanks and Regards,
    Harshad

    Hi Harshad
    The behaviour of the system is very much correct, it is designed to behave that way...
    One, you should not have changed the dep start date....
    two, NBV in SAP is always taken to be NBV @ the start of the year....
    The best wayout I can suggest here is, if you are on EhP4 and EA-FIN active
    a. Change the Dep Key in the asset... You can maintain Time Dependant Dep Terms in asset master i.e. Dep Key X from Jan-Apr and Dep Key Y from MAy onwards
    b. This will however, calculate dep based on NBV at the start of the year, but based on new useful life
    c. Considering your eg: The system is posting more depreciation i.e. 5333 instead of 5155.... So, calculate this amount outside the system and post a Manual Write up ABZU inorder to reduce the Dep and increase the NBV
    Even if you are on not on EhP4, you can follow the same approach as above.... i.e.
    a. Change the Dep Key in asset master.... This will throw up new dep figure, on the basis of New Useful life and NBV at the start of the year
    b. Post a write up from ABZU....
    No need to do Asset to asset transfer in my opinion
    Only diff between EhP4 and Non EhP4 is that the differential depreciation would be lesser if you are on EhP4... i.e. instead of 5333 now, system may throw up depreciation amount of 5666.. So, you may need to post write up of 5666-5155

  • Indian Income Tax Depreciation Calculation

    Hi
    Can any of you please explain/tell me where are the exact SAP configuration settings for the calculation of depreciation calculation as per Indian Income Tax Act by meeting below requirements as per Section 32 of Indian Income Tax Act:
    1. If the Asset is being purchased and used in a Financial Year for 180 Days or below 180 Days  -  Depreciation has to be calculated 50% of Annual Depreciation.
    2.If the Asset is being purchased and used in a Financial Year for more than  180 Days   -  Depreciation has to be calculated 100% of Annual Depreciation.
    Waiting for your valuable reply.
    Thanks and Regards
    P.V.S.R.Gupta

    But if I follow your suggestion of taking Period Control Method 04, it would calculate 1/2 Year Depreciaton only
    No.  If the asset is in use for >180 days, then it's acquisition date must therefore occur in periods 1-6 which will set the depreciation start date to the beginning of the year.  This will result in a full year's worth of depreciation.
    If the asset is in use for <180 days then the start date is set to mid year which results in only 6 months worth of depreciation to be posted. 
    All of this can be adjusted per your FYV and on a yearly basis if the FYV is year dependent in the asset period control calendar assignments table. 
    I'll be the first to admit that I don't know the statutory requirements of India but I know how FI-AA works and can't think of an alternative solution for you.

  • Tax depreciation calculation - India

    Hi,
    For calculating Tax depreciation for India, we use group assets in asset master (dep area 15).
    SAP standard report J1IQ is obsolete and can not be used.
    How to calculate tax depreciation for India.
    Requirement for India tax depreciation is :
    An asset is put to use  < 180 days, depreciation will be 50% of the depreciation rate for that asset (say dep rate is 15%, depreciation will be 7.5% of the asset value.
    If asset is put to use > 180 days, depreciation will be 100% of the depreciation rate for that asset (say dep rate is 15%, depreciation will be 15% of the asset value).
    J1IQ is obsolete. 
    Most of the consultants are facing this problem.
    What is the solution???????????

  • Issue on migration of tax depreciation balances for group assets

    Dear Experts,
    My client is using group assets for tax depreciation report India.
    The SAP implementation was done in 2006 during the data migration the
    client was not clear of the values both individual asset wise and
    group asset wise to migrate to tax depreciation area. So the tax
    depreciation for some of the assets are migrated with some
    (non caluclated) value.
    Now the client want to see the tax depreciation group asset wise or if
    possible individual asset wise.For this the group asset need to be
    created and assigned to each individual asset in the asset master
    record.
    The fiscal year variant is v3, april to march with 4 quaters June,
    Sep, Dec, Mar.
    Now when the data migration for the current year come into picture
    I can use AS81/AS82 for loading current year opening balance and
    accumulated depreciation for all the group of assets as a whole. Or
    I can use AS91/AS92 to load balances into tax depreciation of
    each asset individually. But I am not sure whether this is correct.
    And also what to do with the previous years balances. I am very
    confused. Somebody suggest good solution.
    When I create a legacy asset or group asset in AS91 and AS81
    respectively the fields in the Takeover values screen are grayed
    out and do not allow mw to input values. But I am able to enter
    values by clicking the button Transactions in the Takeover values
    screen and able to enter a value date , transacton type and amount
    for tax depreciation area. Here again I am not convinced using 100
    transaction type for current year opening balance. I used
    transaction type 652(Unplanned tax depreciation on current year
    acquisition) for accumulated current year dpereciation upto second
    quarter septemeber 2008.
    In asset explorer under "Planned values" tab the opening balance
    must be visible under Fiscal year start column but it is displayed
    under change column as I entered values for tax depreciation area
    in AS81 in Transaction screen with asset value date as 01.04.2008
    transaction type 100 and amount as xxxxxx and value date 30.09.2008
    652 xxxxxxxx.
    Need expert guidance on this

  • Wrong depreciation calculated for base value 04 + EA-FIN activated

    Hi,
    after activating EA-FIN, depreciation for assets using base value 04 (= half of replacement value) is calculated wrong.
    While AW01 for a particular asset shows depreciation values based on the FULL replacement value (like it would be base value 03) AW01_AFAR (the u201Coldu201D asset explorer) shows the correct depreciation for base value 04.
    The wrong base value can also be seen using the "display depreciation calculation" button in both transactions.
    There are no enhancements for base value determination active.
    I didnu2019t find any SAPNET notes nor SCN entries regarding this case, any ideas?
    Best regards, Christian

    For what it's worth, I did a search and didn't find anything either. 
    It sounds like you've already tried this, but if the base value (the actual $$ value) is different in the trace on both tcodes then you have a problem.  I would be sure to recalculate the values when you enter AW01 and AW01_AFAR to ensure that it's correct before looking at the trace.
    The formula for the replacement value is: 
    ( u_ganlc-kansw + u_ganlc-answl +
                   u_ganlc-kmafa + u_ganlc-mafav + u_ganlc-zusma +
                   u_ganlc-mafam + u_ganlc-mafal +
                   u_ganlc-kaufw + u_ganlc-aufwv +
                   u_ganlc-aufwp + u_ganlc-aufwl ) / 2 .
    I'd look at ANLC for the asset and do the calculation yourself to confirm the value. 
    You've probably done all of that so I predict an OSS message in your future !

  • Asset depreciation calculation for prevous year  when legacy data transfere

    Hello,
    Asset Legacy Data transfer has made as on 31.12.2006. so, for the first period asset depreciation calculation has done wrongly  i.e. on the first period of 2007. but it was not noticed at that point of time, now after 2 years, the cumulative difference is coming out very big.
    for 1st period, in Asset Value Tab of AS03,  for period 01 , 2007 when i am checking right now it shows for dep. Area 01 right now that Amt to be post (14.48) instead of that in the next line for Dep. area 20 and in the next line it shows, Amt. to be posted ( -0.28). hence, for next period only differnce amount is posted in G/L side instead of actual it should be posted as 14.76.
    so, now because of this error, my G/L and AA sides are not matching up.
    eventhough i post manual reversal entry via FB01, when i will run ABST2 there will be problem.
    if i run manual unplanned depreciation, then will my problem of not matching of Asset side and GL side will be solved. ?
    also, please provide suggestion from your end in order to solve this issue.
    Thanking you for your help.
    Jigs.

    We cannot post any depreciation to previous fiscal year 2008 as no planned depreciation is envisaged for the previous year 2008. The transfer date for Legacy asset data transfer is maintained as 12/31/2008 and takeover values are uploaded accordingly. Hence, 2009 is a first year for Asset Accounting of the company code.
    However, Depreciation posting program checks for previous period log while executing for the current period. The logs are stored in u201CTABAu201D table. For new company code there will not be any entries in TABA table.
    Due to missing functionality, System is checking for previous year depreciation posting logs even though the current fiscal year is first year for planned depreciation and giving error message AA 687.
    As per SAP Note 144441 this error can be rectified with the help of correction program ZACORR_TABA_ENTRY_CREATE.
    Steps to Rectify the Error:
    1. Copy correction program from SAP Note 144441 into SAP System.
    2. Execute the program with transaction code SA38
    3. Check the values in test mode
    4. If the table is updated with documennt number , remove the test mode tick and execute again
    5. Execute the deprecation

  • Tax not calculating for parked invoices

    Hi
    We are using external tax system to determine taxes in SAP.  When an invoice in MIRO is posted normally, the external tax system is called and tax is getting updated.  Whereas, when the invoice is parked for future posting, tax is not being calculated.
    Please help.

    Hi Nikitha
    I am able to park the document with tax.  The problem is when I return to the parked document, I cannot see the tax in the field i.e., it shows 0.00 and therefore the system does not allow me to post the document.
