Formulas
There is a monthly, quarterly, annual average and average number - each category has its own calculation formula. The annual tax indicator is indicated in the tax reporting, but calculations for each month are necessary to determine it.
Annual rate
All values are calculated according to the rules approved by the order of Rosstat No. 772 of November 22, 2017. The formula for the annual indicator is as follows:
It is used in calculating values for the full calendar year. In case of an incomplete calendar year, the values for each actually worked month are summed up and divided by 12.
Monthly rate
To determine the monthly headcount, you need to know two indicators: the average number of full-time employees and the average number of part-time workers.
Full time formula
The monthly indicator for this type of employment is determined as follows:
The total number of workers for each day of the month is summed (D1, D2, D31) and then the amount is divided by the number of calendar days (Cd).
When calculating, it takes into account precisely calendar days, including weekends and holidays.
Part-time billing
The average number of this category of workers is determined more difficult. This will require a time sheet for each month and a production calendar.
- First, you need to determine the total number of hours worked by employees for the month. The calculation also includes those calendar working days when the employee was on sick leave or on vacation. The number of hours is equal to the number of hours worked on the last day before a vacation or illness.
- Further, the amount received is divided by the number of working hours in a particular month (this figure is taken from the production calendar). The result is the number indicator.
- Those categories of citizens for whom an abbreviated schedule is laid down according to labor legislation (persons with disabilities, minors) are included in the calculation as persons working full time.
All the rules, formulas and nuances of calculations are listed in detail in the Guidelines for filling out forms approved by the order of Rosstat No. 772, mentioned at the beginning of the article.
