Definition

Weighting factor for distribution of activity-independent plan costs of a cost center onto the available activity types.

Planning

Use

This field group serves to weight the activity types created in a cost center. After weighting, the activity-independent plan costs of a cost center are distributed onto the available activity types.

Procedure

If you want to change or create equivalence numbers in planning, this field must be defined in the planning layout.

If this field is not defined, any existing equivalence numbers will be displayed, but they cannot be changed.

Examples

You have planned the following activity types for cost center 4420:
Activ. type Plan quantity Equiv. nr.
------------------------------------------
FST 400 hrs 3
REP 50 hrs 1
RST 20 hrs 1
------------------------------------------
Total: 5
This cost center has planned activity-independent costs worth $20,000 . These costs are distributed according to activity price calculation onto the iteratively calculated activity prices (cost rates) of the activity types:
ATyp Fixed costs Fixed portion of activ. price
--------------------------------------------------------------
FST 20,000 X 3/5 = 12,000 $12,000 / 400 hrs = 30 $/hr
REP 20,000 X 1/5 = 4,000 $4,000 / 50 hrs = 80 $/hr
RST 20,000 X 1/5 = 4,000 $4,000 / 20 hrs = 200 $/hr
