(1) The V AT bases of the new Member States have been estimated as though they were capped except in the case of Latvia. As with the GNI, a reduction of one thir d has been
applied to Latvia’s base to take account of the fact that the Accession Treaty will take effect on 1 May 2004.
(2) The GNI bases of the ten new Member States have been reduced by one third to limit their contributions in view of the fact that the Accession Treaty will t ake effect on 1 May
2004.

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 (D), the Netherlands (NL),
Austria (A) and Sweden (S) is restricted to a quarter of their normal contribution.
Formula for a country with a restricted financial burden, for example Germany:
Germany’s theoretical V AT contribution = [Germany’s capped V AT base / (EU capped V AT base – UK capped V AT base)] ×1/4×United Kingdom
correction
Example: Germany:Germany’s theoretical V AT contribution = 9 862 567 000 / (45 454 249 170 – 8 31 1 547 000) ×1/4×4 659 7 49 907 = 309 327 896,033845
(2) Calculation of the frozen rate:
Frozen rate = [UK correction – theoretical V AT contributions (D + N L+A+S ) ]/[ E U capped V AT base – capped V AT bases (U K+D+N L+A+S ) ]
Frozen rate = 4 659 7 49 907 – (309 327 896,033845 + 71 637 501,7551702 + 33 871 527 ,3580 631 + 36 039 081,7984942)] / [45 454 249 170
