The Amortization section in the player profile provides a detailed breakdown of a player's financial status throughout their contract. Here’s how the key values are calculated:
-
Asset Value: This is the total value of the player, calculated by summing the selected values for simulation, including Transfer Fee, Player and Agent Bonuses (both achieved and residual), Agent Fee, Solidarity Mechanism, and Player Valorization. These components give the full cost of acquiring and managing the player.
-
Amortization: This value represents the annual depreciation of the asset value over the length of the player's contract. It is calculated by dividing the asset value by the number of contract years.
-
Amortization Up to Date: This figure shows how much of the asset value has been amortized based on the number of days that have passed in the contract. It automatically updates daily to reflect the current status.
-
Net Book Value Up to Date: This is the remaining value of the player, calculated by subtracting the amortization up to date from the asset value. It shows the current financial value of the player, taking into account how much has already been amortized.
These calculations help track the financial impact of a player’s contract over time.
