Official Checksum Algorithm (Weighted Modulo 10 — ASIC)

Official formula published by ASIC:

S = Σ (d[i] * (8 - i)) [i=0..7]; Remainder = S mod 10; Check = (10 - Remainder) mod 10.
  1. 1. Multiply each of the first 8 digits by descending weights from 8 down to 1.
  2. 2. Sum all products to calculate total S.
  3. 3. Compute remainder = S modulo 10.
  4. 4. Subtract remainder from 10; if result is 10, check digit is 0.
  5. 5. Result must match the 9th digit of the ACN.
