Error in your VAT Examples provided in the article
by Amit Sanghavi on May 11, 2005 05:34 PM   Permalink

The Example B which is recommended and should be followed while implementing VAT is wrongly calculated or printed.
This is the right calculation

Example B (Rs)

Basic purchase price 10,000

Add 12.5 per cent VAT 1,250

VAT inclusive purchase price 11,250

Less VAT input 1,250
------
VAT free purchase price 10,000

Add overheads 100
------
Total 10,100

Add 20 per cent profit margin 2,020
------
Basic selling price 12,120

Add 12.5 per cent VAT 1,515
------
VAT inclusive selling price 13,635
------

So now the net difference between the VAT Inclusive selling price of Eg. A and B is Rs.1688/-.

Pls Rectify.

Amit Sanghavi.
