The calculation of point-kinetics parameters of a nuclear reactor in the MOBY-DICK macrocode system is based on standard regular flux-spectrum-weighted collapsed procedure with implicit impact of the burnup process. The limitation of this method is discussed, and bilinearly flux-adjoint-weighted corrections are derived. Applications for the VVER-type reactor with group-collapsing procedures are provided.
