How to calculate the VAT payable?
Value-added tax is a turnover tax levied on the added value of goods. Taxpayers are different in nature and their calculation methods are different. What are the calculation formulas for the value-added tax that enterprises should pay?

Calculation formula of VAT payable amount

1. If the enterprise is a small-scale taxpayer, the value-added tax payable = sales including tax ÷( 1+ collection rate) × collection rate;

2. If the enterprise belongs to the general taxpayer, the value-added tax payable = output tax-input tax;

Output tax = sales excluding tax × applicable tax rate;

Sales excluding tax = sales including tax ÷( 1+ applicable tax rate);

3. If the enterprise belongs to a small-scale taxpayer enterprise or a general taxpayer enterprise chooses the simple collection method, the payable value-added tax = sales including tax ÷( 1+ simple collection rate) × simple collection rate.

Input tax: refers to the value-added tax paid or borne by taxpayers when they purchase goods, processing, repair and replacement services, services, intangible assets or real estate.

Input tax = price excluding VAT × VAT rate.

Output tax: refers to the amount of value-added tax charged to the buyer according to the sales amount and the prescribed tax rate when the taxpayer has taxable sales behavior.

Output tax = sales × tax rate

Sales include all prices and other fees charged to the buyer. All out-of-price charges that have a causal relationship with sales should be regarded as tax-included sales, that is, out-of-price charges charged to the buyer should be regarded as tax-included income, which should be converted into tax-excluded income at the time of taxation and then incorporated into business tax.
