Partial invoice example for Accounting and Tax

hello and welcome to another accting tutorial where today we'll be looking at what it means for a business to be partially exempt in relation to vat I would hope we all know at this point that if a business makes taxable supplies they must charge VAT on their products or services that they sell and can claim back VAT on the products or services that they purchase if you're not sure on the basics of V8 I would highly recommend going and reading up on these before watching this video because it won't make a great deal of sense if you don't already have the basics now you may also be aware that if a business makes only exempt supplies it cannot register for vat just to enforce the point this is only applying to making exempt supplies and not zero rated supplies the current Dogo list of exempt goods and services is shown on screen now so this leads us to a question what happens when a business makes both taxable and exempt supplies well as a starting point any expenditure which relates solely to taxable supplies or relate solely to exempt supplies would follow the normal process of either reclaiming the vat or if exempt not reclaiming the vat the third category is where an expense relates to both taxable and exempts supplies and a typical example of this would be a business as heat and light which will often cover both taxable and exempt areas of the business this is where the partial exemption comes in because a business is allowed to reclaim a proportion of the vat to determine the proportion we need to firstly look at the proportion of taxable supplies and exempt supplies let's have a look at an example ABC limited produces £180,000 worth of taxable supplies and £60,000 bwith of exempt supplies what percentage of input tax could the business claim back on expenses relating to both taxable and exempt supplies we firstly work out the total amount of supplies the business produces this would be 180,000 plus 60,000 to give you total supplies of 240,000 The Next Step would be to calculate the percentage of this that relates to taxable supplies and exempt supplies to do this for taxable supplies this would be $180,000 divided by 240,000 * 100 giving us 75% and for exempt supplies it would be 60,000 divided 240,000 * 100 giving us 25% as 75% of supplies relate to taxable supplies this means that the business can reclaim 75% of the input tax relating to expenditure covering both taxable and exempt supplies the only other section to look at is what's know known as the D Minimus rule this isn't something you'll be required to calculate during the exam but it is something that a have stated that you'll need to be aware of the D Minimus rule is there for when the exempt supplies of a business are relatively small then rather than having to split out the taxable and exempt supplies hmrc allow the business to reclaim all the input vat the rules for this are as follows the total exempt input tax is below £625 a month month and the exempt input tax is less than 50% of the total input tax let's have a look at an example and just to note the scenario figures relate to a full year XYZ limited purchases £48,000 worth of goods excluding vat related to taxable supplies and supplies of £15,000 excluding vat related to exempt supplies would the D Minimus rule apply firstly calculate the the vat related to Goods being used for standard rated supplies 48,000 * 20% equal 9,600 then calculate the input tax on the goods used in the production of exempt supplies 15,000 * 20% equal 3,000 firstly then is the exempt input tax less than 50% of the total input tax well the total input tax will be 9,600 + 3,000 equaling 12,600 so it's 3,000 less than 50 % of the total input tax yes it is next check is the exempt input tax below £625 a month well 3,000 ided 12 equals 250 a month as both criteria have been met the business would be allowed to claim the vat back on both the goods relating to standard rated and exempt supplies and that wraps up this video on partial exemption I hope you found it useful and if you have remember to hit that like button and sub subscribe to the channel for more aat content thanks again for watching I'll catch you in the next one
