Frustated , are you a VAT registrant?

It works this way:
Lets say you pay 5000 import vat
1000 vat on your electricity and 3000 on your plumber and lawyer.

Suppose you you collect 8000 from your customers.

You send the govt 9000 minus 8000 or 1,000. The business did not pay any vat. You collected 1000 for the govt.

Suppose you did not do well and you only collected 5000 Vat from your customer. The Govt now owes you 4000 Vat credit to be setoff in the next filing. Again, the business did not pay any VAT.

I will tell you what I do.

I go to amazon and look at the price of the item, the shipping weight, the shipping volume and estimate the landed cost by courier, vat, duty, etc...
I slao look at the shipping or delivery time.

Then I go to a local store, or these days, look at the local online stores and compare. If the difference is negligible, I buy locally.

I have noticed that some merchants do not appear to markup on VAT, and those are winners and I usually buy from them.

Businesses which are expanding usually get VAT credits. Like when you purchase new equipment ahead of opening a new venture or while renovating a venue.

Since the pandemic, and since he used to be minister of health, he much prefers to be what the yiddish mama would say, a **kibitzer- a meddler who offers unwanted advice to others.**

As well as a frequent talk show celebrity, watch him hit the pavement again.

Why would a business care about the increase in vat.

you get the money back.

You do not even have to wait. If you pay the plumber VAT 100, you might collect the same from your customers this afternoon.

The prices would be more reasonable if the goods were marked up excluding VAT.
Then, the local merchants might compete with amazon.

As it is, even paying the high courier charges, one can beat the retail price.

Try car parts , for example.

What is really going to be devastating is the vat I will have to pay on the fuel for my private helicopter.

But I should not complain as it was duty free.

My skis and ski masks are also duty free.

I will be ok.

ohdrap4 says...

Yes it was 15%, but all the duty free items would have been vat free.

a much broader base than the current vat free list . To include , for example, books, and meats, sugar, etc...
