Issue No.: 43
Assume the following scenario in AA:
Life of the asset: 3 years
Original Cost: 60,000; Scrap Value: 15,000.
The configuration was done in such a way that the SAP solution was taking the original cost as the basis for calculating depreciation. Thus, it is calculating depreciation as follows:
1st Year: 20,000
2nd Year: 20,000
3rd Year: 5,000
However, the user requirement is that depreciation should be calculated based on original cost net of scrap value. That is, depreciation should be as follows:
1st Year: 15,000
2nd Year: 15,000
3rd Year: 15,000

This could be achieved by using T-code AFAMA in SPRO by resetting (for each depreciation key) the scrap value field as "Base Value is reduced by the Scrap Value Amount."
