Conditional delete -- New glitch

Hi
Please dont consider this as duplicated post..

I am using below pattern to find delete files to bringdown disc size.. however how i can make sure ist going to correct folder and searching for files... while print "echo rm " LastFile correctly print files names for deletion, but when i remove echo and left with rm then its complaining no such file for directory.

Code:

{ cd /home/asp; stat -fc"%b %a %S" .; stat -c"%n %b %B" 2018*.tar.gz | sort; } | awk '
NR == 1         {Needed = ($1 * PCT - $2) * $3
                 next
                }

                {split ($1, T, "_")
                 if (T[1] == KnownTime)
                    {print "rm " LastFile
                    SUM += $2 * $3
                    if (SUM >= Needed) exit
                    }
                 KnownTime = T[1]
                 LastFile = $1
                }
' PCT=0.4  |sh
