This field is used to enter the depreciation calculation rule to apply to the financial asset – to all the financial assets in the case of a mass process – for the financial year of the issue. More particularly, this rule enables to define the issue day according to the issue date entered.
The default issue is On the specified day:the depreciation is calculated according to the issue rules specified in the depreciation mode for each of the assets.
- the rule specified is not taken into account with plans amortized according to a free depreciation mode.
- in the case of a Standard depreciation mode, the rule is only taken into account if it is applicable to the depreciation mode (see the documentation related to the Unitary issue or Mass issue functions).
Issue rules available:
- Issue at the end of the previous month: the charge is calculated until the end of the month preceding the month of the issue date.
- Issue at the end of the current month: the complete charge is calculated for the month of the issue date.
- Issue at the end of the previous FIY: the charge is calculated until the end of the financial year preceding the financial year of the issue date.
- Issue at the end of the current FIY: the complete charge is calculated for the issue year. The depreciation calculation is, in this case, carried out as if the asset has not been issued.
- Issue at the end of the previous half-year: the charge is calculated until the end of the semester preceding the semester of the issue date.
- Issue at the end of the current half-year:the charge is calculated until the end of the semester of the issue date.
- No depreciation charge on the issue day: the asset issue day is not included in the charge calculation for the disinvestment financial year.
- 1st asset from the concession sold:this rule only applies to assets In the concession.
- Exceptional depreciation = Net value: when the issue reason is Scrap, this rule enables to define an exceptional depreciation equal to the net value, avoiding a loss in value.
The calculation allowing to define the net value on the issue date is performed according to a specific timeline detailed in the documentation related to the Unitary issue and Mass issue functions in the Process description.
Note: this rule does not impact the Subsidy depreciation plan.
