 Sample Calculation Minimum/Maximum Rent

The calculation basis is defined by means of the adjustment data for the contract.

This example is based on the settings for currency units. If you use units of measurement or quantities, consider this example as a rough approximation (the Amount/UnitMeas field is displayed instead of the % field).

Starting point

You have defined the adjustment data of a condition type as follows:

  • Settlement variant: 01/01/1997 - 06/30/1997

  • Minimum rent: USD 5600

  • Reporting interval: Per quarter

  • Sales gradings (USD):

Sales reports

The following sales reports are submitted:

Reporting interval 01/01/1997 - 03/31/1997

USD 18000

Reporting interval 04/01/1997 - 06/30/1997

USD 43000

Result of sales settlement

On the basis of the sales settlement the following amount was calculated for this condition type:

Calculated sales-based rent = 43000 * 0.12 = USD 5160

Since this amount is smaller than the specified minimum rent , the minimum rent (USD 5600) is established as the sales-based rent.

If the maximum rent had been specified to be USD 5000 , the system would not have taken the amount of USD 5160 as the basis for the sales-based rent but the maximum amount of USD 5000.
