How to apply percentage adjustments?

[ZZGAMAZZ]

I find it interesting that in theory the SC adjustments are listed sequentially in order of decreasing importance, but if absolute adjustments are made the affect, e.g., of a $1,500 wood stove adjustment is equal to the affect of a $1,500 sales concession. Practical application appears to contradict theory, although I think I'll e-mail Andrew in the ACI thread to inquire whether percentage adjustments can be applied to the sequence of adjusted values rather than to the sales price (not sure of the mathmatical term for this or whether I'm describing this as well as I'd like.)

As a former PFC I can tell you Dennis got it right. Not sure about the whole adjustment thing though.

From one former PFC to another-

Denis and Kevin, thank you for your service to your country!

Kaplan uses that same little diddy as a reminder, unfortunately I can never remember it...LOL!

So, does your software automatically adjust for the order? Mine doesn't.

PS...I earned one stripe in 4 years, went in as E2...USAF early 60s. We had a squadron of 400 and were lucky to get one or two promotions a cycle. Guys were re-enlisting for 4 years to make A1C (E4). I knew a couple of guys who retired as E4s back then, of course they were cooks...LOL!

Hah! Finally I can say I outranked the really old guy in something. I was E-6.

Yes, but Greg, if we were in the navy.... Mike, Kevin and I would be admirals! :laugh:

No. You would be Seaman Apprentices and I would be your mentor. I'd be sending you down to the boiler room for a bucket of steam or the the Captain's cabin for the keys to the ship.:laugh:

Was stationed at Pease AFB in the early 60s. Ever see guys throwing ropes over the wings of a B-47 and sawing the snow off them? Pulled more than my fair share of snow removal duty. If you volunteered for a 24 hour snow team you got an extra three day pass.
