Trying to Create a Deprecaition Formula for Tax SHort Year
Problem Description
---------------------------------------------------
We have a need for creating a short tax year in our tax books. I have located the following White Paper on this Implementing Asset Conversion in SHort Tax Years. I have followed the document and created the following formulas for our 200 DB Half Year assets our In-Service Date is 07/05/13 with our COnversion date being 02/28/2014. Out fiscal year is from 04/01/2013 - 03/31/2014. I am using the following formula from the document for 200DB
Greatest( 2/life, decode( short year, 1, 1/Remaining_Life1, 0,
1/Remaining_Life2))
