Calculation of the uniform call rate for VAT own resources (Article 2(4) of Decision 2000/597/EC, Euratom):

| Uniform rate (%) = Maximum call rate – frozen rate |
| --- |
| A. The maximum call rate is set at 0,50 % for 2004. |
| B. Determination of the rate frozen by the correction of budgetary imbalances granted to the United Kingdom (Article 2(4)(b) of Decision 2000/597/EC, Euratom): |
| (1) calculation of the theoretical share of the countries with a restricted financial burden: |
| In accordance with Article 5(1) of Decision 2000/597/EC, Euratom, the financial contribution of Germany (DE), the Netherlands (NL), Austria (AT) and Sweden (SE) is restricted to a quarter of their normal contribution. |
| Formula for a country with a restricted financial burden, for example Germany: |
| Germany’s theoretical VAT contribution = [Germany’s capped VAT base / (EU capped VAT base – UK capped VAT base)] × 1/4 × United Kingdom correction |
| Example: Germany: |
| Germany’s theoretical VAT contribution = 9 862 567 000 / (45 454 249 170 – 8 311 547 000 ) × 1/4 × 4 659 749 907 = 309 327 896,033845 |
| (2) calculation of the frozen rate |
| Frozen rate = [UK correction – theoretical VAT contributions (D + NL + A + S)] / [EU capped VAT base – capped VAT bases (UK+ D + NL + A + S)] |
| Frozen rate = 4 659 749 907 – (309 327 896,033845 + 71 637 501,7551702 + 33 871 527,3580631 + 36 039 081,7984942 )] / [45 454 249 170 – (8 311 547 000 + 9 862 567 000 + 2 284 080 000 + 1 079 955 000 + 1 149 065 000 )] |
| Frozen rate = 0,184867017976958 % |
| Uniform rate |
| 0,50 % – 0,184867017976958 % = 0,315132982023042 % |

Uniform rate (%) = Maximum call rate – frozen rate

Example: Germany:

Germany’s theoretical VAT contribution = 9 862 567 000 / (45 454 249 170 – 8 311 547 000 ) × 1/4 × 4 659 749 907 = 309 327 896,033845

(2) calculation of the frozen rate

Frozen rate = [UK correction – theoretical VAT contributions (D + NL + A + S)] / [EU capped VAT base – capped VAT bases (UK+ D + NL + A + S)]

Frozen rate = 4 659 749 907 – (309 327 896,033845 + 71 637 501,7551702 + 33 871 527,3580631 + 36 039 081,7984942 )] / [45 454 249 170 – (8 311 547 000 + 9 862 567 000 + 2 284 080 000 + 1 079 955 000 + 1 149 065 000 )]

Calculation of the uniform call rate for VAT own resources (Article 2(4) of Decision 2000/597/EC, Euratom):

| Uniform rate (%) = Maximum call rate – frozen rate |
| --- |
| A. The maximum call rate is set at 0,50 % for 2004. |
| B. Determination of the rate frozen by the correction of budgetary imbalances granted to the United Kingdom (Article 2(4)(b) of Decision 2000/597/EC, Euratom): |
| 1) Calculation of the theoretical share of the countries with a restricted financial burden: |
| In accordance with Article 5(1) of Decision 2000/597/EC, Euratom, the financial contribution of Germany (DE), the Netherlands (NL), Austria (AT) and Sweden (SE) is restricted to a quarter of their normal contribution. |
| Formula for a country with a restricted financial burden, for example Germany: |
| Germany’s theoretical VAT contribution = [Germany’s capped VAT base / (EU25 capped VAT base – UK capped VAT base)]×1/4×United Kingdom correction |
| Example: Germany: |
| Germany’s theoretical VAT contribution = 9 451 381 000 / (45 507 318 170 – 8 387 322 500 ) × 1/4 × 5 391 559 038 = 343 195 613 |
| 2) Calculation of the frozen rate: |
| Frozen rate1 = [UK correction– theoretical VAT contributions (D + NL + A + S)] / [EU25 capped VAT base – capped VAT bases (UK+ D + NL + A + S)] |
| Frozen rate1 = [5 391 559 038 – (343 195 613 + 80 641 182 + 38 683 932 + 43 971 713 )] / [45 507 318 170 – (8 387 322 500 + 9 451 381 000 + 2 220 805 000 + 1 065 330 000 + 1 210 952 000 )] |
| Frozen rate1 = 0,210821947849923 % |
| C. Determination of the rate frozen by the correction of budgetary imbalances granted to the United Kingdom (Article 2(4)(b) of Decision 94/728/EC, Euratom]: |
| 1) Calculation of the theoretical share of the countries with a restricted financial burden: |
| In accordance with Article 5(1) of Decision 94/728/EC, Euratom, the financial contribution of Germany (DE) is restricted to two thirds of its normal contribution. |
| Calculation formula for Germany: |
| Germany’s theoretical VAT contribution = [Germany’s capped VAT base / (EU15 capped VAT base — UK capped VAT base)]×2/3×United Kingdom correction |
| Example: Germany: |
| Germany’s theoretical VAT contribution = 9 451 381 000 / (44 053 080 500 – 8 387 322 500 ) × 2/3 × – 293 991 119 = –51 938 184 |
| 2) Calculation of the frozen rate: |
| Frozen rate2 = [UK correction– theoretical VAT contribution (D)] / [EU15 capped VAT base – capped VAT base (UK)] |
| Frozen rate2 = [– 293 991 119 – (– 519 381 84) ] / [44 053 080 500 – (8 387 322 500 + 9 451 381 000 )] |
| Frozen rate2 = –0,00923359477705029  % |
| Frozen rate tot = Frozen rate1 + Frozen rate2 |
| Uniform rate = Maximum call rate – Frozen rate tot |
| 0,50 % – 0,201588353072873 % = 0,298411646927127 % |

Uniform rate (%) = Maximum call rate – frozen rate

A. The maximum call rate is set at 0,50 % for 2004.

Conclusions of the Edinburgh European Council of 11 and 12 December 1992 concerning the creation of a reserve for emergency aid.

Council Regulation (EC, Euratom) No 1150/2000 of 22 May 2000 implementing Decision 94/728/EC, Euratom on the system of the Communities' own resources (OJ L 130, 31.5.2000, p. 1).

Council Regulation (EC) No 2040/2000 of 26 September 2000 on budgetary discipline (OJ L 244, 29.9.2000, p. 27).

Council Decision 2000/597/EC, Euratom of 29 September 2000 on the system of the European Communities' own resources (OJ L 253, 7.10.2000, p. 42), and in particular Article 2(1)(d) and Article 6 thereof.

Council Regulation (EC, Euratom) No 1605/2002 of 25 June 2002 on the Financial Regulation applicable to the general budget of the European Communities (OJ L 248, 16.9.2002, p. 1), and in particular Articles 26 and 45 thereof.

When the Commission considers it necessary to draw on this reserve, it convenes a three–way meeting as soon as possible in order to obtain the agreement of the two arms of the budgetary authority on the need to use the reserve and on the amount required. The reserve is drawn on by means of a transfer to the budget headings concerned.

Calculation of the uniform call rate for VAT own resources (Article 2(4) of Decision 2000/597/EC, Euratom):

| Uniform rate (%) = Maximum call rate – frozen rate |
| --- |
| A. The maximum call rate is set at 0,50 % for 2004. |
| B. Determination of the rate frozen by the correction of budgetary imbalances granted to the United Kingdom (Article 2(4)(b) of Decision 2000/597/EC, Euratom): |
| 1) Calculation of the theoretical share of the countries with a restricted financial burden: |
| In accordance with Article 5(1) of Decision 2000/597/EC, Euratom, the financial contribution of Germany (DE), the Netherlands (NL), Austria (AT) and Sweden (SE) is restricted to a quarter of their normal contribution. |
| Formula for a country with a restricted financial burden, for example Germany: |
| Germany’s theoretical VAT contribution = [Germany’s capped VAT base / (EU25 capped VAT base – UK capped VAT base)] × 1/4 × United Kingdom correction |
| Example: Germany: |
| Germany’s theoretical VAT contribution = 9 451 381 000 / (45 507 318 170 – 8 387 322 500 ) × 1/4 × 5 391 559 038 = 343 195 613 |
| 2) Calculation of the frozen rate: |
| Frozen rate1 = [UK correction– theoretical VAT contributions (D + NL + A + S)] / [EU25 capped VAT base – capped VAT bases (UK+ D + NL + A + S)] |
| Frozen rate1 = [5 391 559 038 – (343 195 613 + 80 641 182 + 38 683 932 + 43 971 713 )] / [45 507 318 170 – (8 387 322 500 + 9 451 381 000 + 2 220 805 000 + 1 065 330 000 + 1 210 952 000 )] |
| Frozen rate1 = 0,210821947849923 % |
| C. Determination of the rate frozen by the correction of budgetary imbalances granted to the United Kingdom (Article 2(4)(b) of Decision 94/728/EC, Euratom]: |
| 1) Calculation of the theoretical share of the countries with a restricted financial burden: |
| In accordance with Article 5(1) of Decision 94/728/EC, Euratom, the financial contribution of Germany (DE) is restricted to two thirds of its normal contribution. |
| Calculation formula for Germany: |
| Germany’s theoretical VAT contribution = [Germany’s capped VAT base / (EU15 capped VAT base – UK capped VAT base)] × 2/3 × United Kingdom correction |
| Example: Germany: |
| Germany’s theoretical VAT contribution = 9 451 381 000 / (44 053 080 500 – 8 387 322 500 ) × 2/3 × – 293 991 119 = –51 938 184 |
| 2) Calculation of the frozen rate: |
| Frozen rate2 = [UK correction– theoretical VAT contribution (D)] / [EU15 capped VAT base – capped VAT base (UK + D)] |
| Frozen rate2 = [– 293 991 119 – (–51 938 184 )] / [44 053 080 500 – (8 387 322 500 + 9 451 381 000 )] |
| Frozen rate2 = –0,00923359477705029  % |
| Frozen rate tot = Frozen rate1 + Frozen rate2 |
| Uniform rate = Maximum call rate – Frozen rate tot |
| 0,50 % – 0,201588353072873 % = 0,298411646927127 % |

Uniform rate (%) = Maximum call rate – frozen rate

A. The maximum call rate is set at 0,50 % for 2004.

B. Determination of the rate frozen by the correction of budgetary imbalances granted to the United Kingdom (Article 2(4)(b) of Decision 2000/597/EC, Euratom):

1) Calculation of the theoretical share of the countries with a restricted financial burden:

In accordance with Article 5(1) of Decision 2000/597/EC, Euratom, the financial contribution of Germany (DE), the Netherlands (NL), Austria (AT) and Sweden (SE) is restricted to a quarter of their normal contribution.

Formula for a country with a restricted financial burden, for example Germany:

Germany’s theoretical VAT contribution = [Germany’s capped VAT base / (EU25 capped VAT base – UK capped VAT base)] × 1/4 × United Kingdom correction

Example: Germany:

Germany’s theoretical VAT contribution = 9 451 381 000 / (45 507 318 170 – 8 387 322 500 ) × 1/4 × 5 391 559 038 = 343 195 613

2) Calculation of the frozen rate:

Frozen rate1 = [UK correction– theoretical VAT contributions (D + NL + A + S)] / [EU25 capped VAT base – capped VAT bases (UK+ D + NL + A + S)]

Frozen rate1 = [5 391 559 038 – (343 195 613 + 80 641 182 + 38 683 932 + 43 971 713 )] / [45 507 318 170 – (8 387 322 500 + 9 451 381 000 + 2 220 805 000 + 1 065 330 000 + 1 210 952 000 )]

In accordance with Article 5(1) of Decision 94/728/EC, Euratom, the financial contribution of Germany (DE) is restricted to two thirds of its normal contribution.

Calculation formula for Germany:

Germany’s theoretical VAT contribution = [Germany’s capped VAT base / (EU15 capped VAT base – UK capped VAT base)] × 2/3 × United Kingdom correction

Example: Germany:

Germany’s theoretical VAT contribution = 9 451 381 000 / (44 053 080 500 – 8 387 322 500 ) × 2/3 × – 293 991 119 = –51 938 184

2) Calculation of the frozen rate:

Frozen rate2 = [UK correction– theoretical VAT contribution (D)] / [EU15 capped VAT base – capped VAT base (UK + D)]

Frozen rate2 = [– 293 991 119 – (–51 938 184 )] / [44 053 080 500 – (8 387 322 500 + 9 451 381 000 )]

Frozen rate2 = –0,00923359477705029  %

Frozen rate tot = Frozen rate1 + Frozen rate2

Uniform rate = Maximum call rate – Frozen rate tot

0,50 % – 0,201588353072873 % = 0,298411646927127 %
