Basic misunderstanding there, Cu. The FMC has no part (on a 737) in calculating assumed temperature, but merely effects the selected temperature in the engine settings. The AT itself is derived from airport analysis tables which do of course allow for those factors.

I don't know anyone who gets involved in that equation in the cockpit.
