AA617 Acquisition value negative in area 01

$
0
0

Hi,

 

Can anyone please explainthe reason why i get the error message: "AA617 Acquisition value negative in area 01" when doing asset transfer in trasnaction AIBU?

 

During test in Dev environment, i got this error message. I was able to resolve it by ticking the "Neg. Values Allowed" in the AUC Depreciation area.

 

However, when i test again in Quality system, i do not have this error. The data i have processed in Dev and Quality are replicates. The only difference is that in Dev i am posting transfer in periods already in previous fiscal year. While in Quality, the asset transfer and asset creation date are all in the current fiscal year.

 

Is this the reason why?

New asset less than 180 days (india tax purpose) half of depreciation

$
0
0

In India, there is a requirement that the Depreciation for Income Tax should be calculated based on the date of Acquisition. If an asset has been acquired before or on completion of 180 days of a Financial Year, than the calculation of Depreciation is allowed for full year. If the asset has been acquired after 180 days , depreciation is allowed only for 180 days. Hence for an asset acquired on 25/09/2009, system should allow calculation of depreciation from 01/04/2009, assuming that the fiscal year starts from 01/04/2009 and ends on 31/03/2009. However, if the asset is acquired on 07/10/2009, the system should allow depreciation from 01/10/2009. Sap has delivered standard depreciation keys for the same in reference chart of depreciation for India 0IN.

 

But if the asset has been acquired on 01/10/2009, still the asset has to be depreciated from 01/04/2009, since the asset has been acquired for less than 180 days into the fiscal year. The system is working fine for asset capitalized on 25/09/2009 and 07/10/2009. But we are not able to map the same if asset is capitalized on 01/10/2009 and 02/10/2009. For these two dates, the depreciation should start from 01/04/2009.

 

I have checked the period control setting and calender assignments and everything seems to be in place. How can we tackle the issue?

Depreciation calculation based on WDV on remaining useful life

$

Dear Experts

I have a requirement of calculating depreciation on WDV method on remaining useful life. the scenario explains as below

 

The Company was original following Written Down Value Depreciation Method wherein Depreciation is calculated yearly on a pro-rata basis at a fixed percentage on the opening book value of the assets as illustrated below:

Particulars

2011-12

2012-13

2013-14

Opening Book Value of Assets

 

900

810

Add: Cost of Acquistion during the year

1,000

-

-

Less: Depreciation for the year @ 10%

100

90

81

Closing Book Value of Assets (WDV)

900

810

729

 

In short depreciation was calculated at every year on a fixed percentage basis on the written down value of the asset.

The Company had maintained separate depreciation keys in the system for each Asset Class (eg. Plant & Machinery, Building, Office Equipments etc.). Each Depreciation key specified the rate of depreciation to be charged.

However the New Companies Act 2013, the act has done away with the rates of depreciation. Instead the act specifies useful life of the assets class over which the asset has to be depreciated. (For example the act specifies that Non-Factory Building have to be depreciated over a period 60 years). Further in case of assets which have already been use as at 1st April 2014 will have to be depreciated over the remaining useful life of the assets. For example,

In case of an asset which purchase on 1st April 2011, as at 1st April 2014 the asset has already been in use for a period of 3 years. Now, if the useful life of the asset as specified by the new act is 5 years the remaining useful life of the asset as at  1st April 2014 works out to 2 years. Thus the asset will now have to be depreciated over a period 2 years starting from 1st April 2014.

However, since the new act does not specify the WDV rate at which the asset is to be depreciated, the implied rate of depreciation considering the remaining useful life will have to be calculated using the following Formula as attached file1

 

 

 

Where n =  Useful Life of the asset (Residual Value in case the asset is existing as  on 1st April 2014.

 

Book Value = Written Down Value as on 1st April 2014 or Cost of Acquisition in case of assets newly purchased during the year.

 

Therefore continuing our above example, suppose the useful life of asset acquired in 2011-12 specified under the new Companies Act is 15 years. Thus the remaining useful life of the asset as at 1st April 2014 will be 12 years and residual value will be calculated @ 5% on the original cost of the asset. Therefore the implied rate of depreciation under WDV Method with remaining useful life of 12 years will be computed as attached file, file2

 

 

Thus the implied rate of depreciation would be 20.01% and the depreciation for the year 2014-15 would be calculated as follows:

 

Particulars

2013-14

2014-15

Opening Book Value of Assets

810

729

Add: Cost of Acquistion during the year

-

 

Less: Depreciation for the year @ 20% for FY 2014-15

81

146

Closing Book Value of Assets (WDV)

729

583

 

Likewise, individual depreciation rates would have to be computed for all the assets outstanding on 1st April 2014.

 

This can be done either by manually calculating the depreciation rate for all assets and then create separate depreciation keys for all assets. However creating so many keys would be a cumbersome process.

 

Can you suggest An alternative to the above process so which would automatically calculate the depreciation rates based on the useful life entered on each assets?

Error code AA661 / Investment Support

$
0

Hi

 

I am new in this forum and have a question regarding the support that you can add to an investment. We have investments that we invoice our customers and we want the revenues to be recognized in the same way as we depreciate the investment. We have located the function where you can add revenues/debts (such as goverment grants or like in our case, customer invoices).

 

The problem we have is that in some cases the revenues (debt) is higher than the underlying investment. We get error code AA661 - saying that the investment value cant be exceeded by debt value. Is this standard or can we override this with some settings?

 

Many thanks in advance!

Asset acquisition with F-90

Hello,

 

we are posting asset acquisition against vendor with F-90 (transaction type 100). We want to input different acquisition values for Depreciation area US GAAP and depreciation area Local GAAP.

However in the screen for F-90 we do not have ability to input different values. However i have seen before in another implementation that there was the option to input different acquisition values in F-90. I cannot find any customizing to control this - so does anyone know how to fulfill the requirement to post different acquisition values into different depreciation areas from F-90?

 

Thanks
