Calculating FA Depreciation

kolaboykolaboy Member Posts: 446
I have an existing Asset (Building, FA 0056 cost $100000) which is one year old as at January 1st 2007. On the 16th of January 2007, there was an additional expenditure of $5000.

2. Action

I posted this addition of $5000 by way of FA Journal to FA 0056 as acquisition cost.

3. Consequence

When I run the calculate depreciation for January 2007 the result I get is calculating only 15 day depreciation on the balance of this Asset which is $105000. I think the result should be 15 days depreciation on $100000 (from the 1st to the 15th January) and 15 days on $105000 (16th to 31st).

4. Question

Is the any way I can get my desired result? What am I doing wrong? Does the Navision allow addition to an existing Asset?
PLS. Help.

    Acquisition Cost should be booked to a FA on or before captilization of the FA. Once FA is acquired and the depreciation calculation begins then all the new acquistion should be posted in new FA. New FA can be linked with the original FA using Main Asset and Components Functionality.

    System Logic: Navision calculates the depreciation on Net Value as per Book Value on Last Acquistion date - depreciation posted since last acquistion cost.
