Robust

introduction

Robust represents practical research into leveraging logic programming and RDF to solve accounting problems. The core logic runs in SWI-Prolog, and is aided by several smaller python codebases.

We use it at http://www.nobleaccounting.com.au to automate reporting and auditing tasks.

Several services are available:

investment calculator
hirepurchase agreement
depreciation
livestock (standalone)
division 7A loan calculator

investment calculator ("ledger")

The most complex endpoint is the investment calculator; it validates and processes financial data of a financial entity for a given period:

bank statements
general ledger transactions
forex and investments
Australian SMSF accounting
livestock accounting

It automates some accounting procedures, like tax calculations, and generates balance sheets, trial balances, investment report and other types of reports.

livestock calculator

depreciation calculator

hirepurchase calculator

(todo: UI)

Given a hire purchase arrangement, it can track the balance of a hire purchase account through time, the total payment and the total interest.
