Weighted calculation on the basis of calendar days
If in the CLA you specify that you will use the weighted period calculation on the basis of calendar days, then Profit looks at the actual number of calendar days and the entry’s effective date. This results in the following calculation:
Weighted period amount = (Number of days / Number of calendar days per period) x Period value
Profit only makes these calculations if the entry becomes effective after the first day of the relevant period.
Example:
An employee receives a salary increase. The current salary is 2,000.00. Employees are paid on a monthly basis.
You increase the salary to 2,500 on 26 January. January has 31 calendar days.
January period amount = (25/31) x 2,000 + (6/31) x 2,500 = 2,096.77
A change in the part-time percentage can also be calculated this way.
Example:
An employee’s part-time percentage is 80%. Employees are paid on a monthly basis.
You change the part-time percentage to 65% on 26 March. March has 31 calendar days.
March part-time percentage = (25/31) x 80 + (6/31) x 65 = 77.10
The above method also applies when an employee has multiple salary or timetable lines in the same period. For each line, Profit performs a weighted calculation. Profit is unable to determine the correct value when the new timetable and salary lines coincide.
