Creating an "income tax" or "revenue tax"
Posted: Wed Mar 16, 2011 4:57 pm
I want to create a sort of income tax or revenue surcharge to apply to all companies once certain conditions are met.
Essentially, I want to withdraw a % of YTD revenue from each company cash. I'm doing this as it follows:
EVENT 1 - recurrent Yearly (End)
Force to test against all companies
Effect:
Set CV4 = YTD company revenue
EVENT 2
Force to test against all companies
*conditions for tax are met, then this set of effects follow:
- Set CV3 = CV4
- CV3 = CV3 * 8 (in this case I'm charging 8% revenue tax)
- CV3 = CV3 / 100
- Company Cash - CV3
Will this work (e.g., reducing cash for each company as 8% of their last year revenue)? More specifically, provided I put the effects in order at the "effects" tab, will they be processed in the exact order (as not to - for instance - withdraw the cash (cv3) before making the other calculations).
In a broader sense, can I use company variables to make short calculations in each event (provided they are not storing long-term important data)?
