Function documentation Minimum Tax Evaluation Amounts Locate the document in its SAP Library structure

Use

According to the tax law, an asset’s tax evaluation amount must never fall below a certain percentage of its acquisition and production costs (APC), so the Property Tax Report never posts a tax evaluation amount below that.

Activities

Define the percentage rate in Customizing for Financial Accounting (FI), by choosing Asset Accounting  ® Depreciation   ® Valuation Methods  ® Further Settings  ® Define the Cutoff Value Key.

Do not add the cutoff value key to any depreciation keys.

Example

You purchase an asset for JPY 1,000,000. Later in the asset’s life, you make an adjustment posting to reduce the asset’s starting tax evaluation amount to JPY 30,000, which is 3% of the asset’s APC. Assuming that an asset’s tax evaluation amount may not fall below 5% of its APC, the report still sets the asset’s tax evaluation amount to JPY 50,000, to bring it up to 5%.
