PTBI Data Entry Policy

There are five options for entering Pre-Tax Book Income, which are determined by the data entry policy. From the PTBI Data Entry Policy drop-down menu, select the desired PTBI method.

The default PTBI Data Entry Policy is Enter Local, FX; Calc USD.

To change the PTBI Policy:

1.	Click Change.

2.	Select one of the following policies:

a.	Enter USD, FX and Calc Local.

b.	Enter Local, USD and Calc FX.

c.	Enter Local, USD and FX.

d.	Enter Local, USD, FX and Calc Rounding.

Policy	Local Currency PBT	Reporting Currency PBT	FX Rate	Rounding
Enter Local, FX and Calc USD	Entered	Calculated	Entered	N/A
Enter USD, FX and Calc Local	Calculated	Entered	Entered	N/A
Enter Local, USD and Calc FX	Entered	Entered	Calculated	N/A
Enter Local, USD and FX	Entered	Entered	Entered	N/A
Enter Local, USD, FX and Calc Rounding	Entered	Entered	Entered	Calculated

If Enter Local, USD and Calc FX policy is selected and the Local PTBI equals zero:

•	The system attempts to compute the reporting by dividing zero by the Weighted Average FX and returning "unknown," with no amounts displaying in reporting currency. To display amounts in reporting currency, select another PTBI policy and enter the Weighted Average FX.

Reports in reporting currency display with the message: "Unit(s) included in the report have an Unknown Weighted Average FX. Amounts in those units will be excluded in reporting currency.

•	When using the last two policies, Effective Tax rates may differ in Local Currency and Reporting Currency because the PTBI is using a different Weighted Average rate than the entered Weighted Average.

•	When using the last policy, the rounding amount is included on a separate line in the Effective Tax Rate report.

•	Regardless of the policy selected, amounts other than the PTBI are converted at the entered Weighted Average or Spot rate.
