Description

Calculation rates are lookup tables used in calculations to apply specific rates to a calculation result based on the value of the result. Calculation rates typically model tax tables with individual tax rates for each bracket. Any calculation that references a calculation rate will always look up the calculation rate table after calculating the result of the calculation.

Each calculation rate must be associated with one or more calculation rate items.
