Rate Adjustment Factor calculation
I think that for one of the asset the RAF calculation is wrong. Can someone please help me with calculation?
Here are the details about the asset.
Asset Cost: 2004.58
DPIS: 01-MAY-2014
Life: 5 Yrs
Deprn Method: 200DB
Asset Added in Oracle on 01-Nov-2015 with same date(01-Nov-15) as Amortization Start Date.
Depreciation reserve Used when uploading Asset is 1205.24
System Calculated RAF Value is 0.488890441
Adjusted Cost/NBV is 799.34
Depreciation for Nov-15 period is 39.97
Expected RAF is 0.577778333 & Based on this RAF Expected Depreciation for Nov-15 is 33.81
Used formula for RAF = (Cost - Deprn Reserve ) / Cost = (2004.58-846.37) / 2004.58 = 0.577778333
Deprn Reserve Till 01-Nov-15 = AD for 2014(8 months) + AD for 2015(10 Months) = (2004.58*0.26667/12) *8 + (2004.58*0.29333/12) *10 = 356.37 + 490.00 = 846.37
