    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 %
