Definition

Adjusts foreign currency balances for inflation without valuating them.

Use

Normally, the Inflation adjustment of G/L accounts program valuates the foreign currency balance, then splits the valuation amount between gains or losses on (a) foreign exchange and (b) inflation.

If you select this indicator, the program adjusts the foreign currency balance for inflation without first valuating them. The amount to be adjusted is the total local currency amount of the accounting documents.

Example

On 28 February your shares account contains two line items in foreign currency, as follows:

Date Foreign currency amount Exchange rate Local currency amount

15 January USD 50,000 0.2 UNI 10,000

31 January USD 50,000 0.204 UNI 10,200

Balance: USD 100,000 UNI 20,200

The inflation rate in February was 0.5%. When you run the program, it calculates the inflation adjustment amount as UNI 20,200 × 0.5% = UNI 101.
