Answer / h.r. sreepada bhagi
VAT charged in the Tax Invoice is a liability to the Seller
as the amount should be remitted to the Government. It's an
Asset to the buyer,as he's entitled for setting it off
against VAT liability on his sales. At the end of the month
VAT on Sales and Purchases can be adjusted against each
other and if VAT on Purchase is more than VAT on sales
during that month, it will appear as 'Input VAT Credit'
under 'Current Assets, Loans & Advances' & if VAT on Sales
is more than VAT on Purchases, it will appear as 'VAT
Payable' under Current Liabilities & Provisions in the
Balance Sheet.

Answer / tax beginner
VAT (Value Added Tax) applicable on Company’s Sales is its
liability since Company have to remit the same to
Government as Taxes on Monthly/Quarterly/Yearly Basis
(Return cum payment). A company can always pass the Burden
of this tax onto its customer by way of including it in its
Net Sales price. While making payment to Government a
company can avail setoff (reduce from VAT liability) for
the VAT paid by it for the purchases which go in to
production and ultimately gets converted into saleable
product. Thus the Eligible Input Tax Credit (Setoff) is an
Asset to a Company and gets reduced from its VAT Liability
to the Government. In Balance sheet it can be shown in
Current Asset and gets reduced/knocked off/reversed as and
when VAT Liability is discharged by making necessary
entries in Books of Accounts.

Answer / thabo modukanele
It depends, when you purchase goods you pay vat input and
when you sell goods you charge vat output which does not
really belong to you as the seller therefore is a liability
which is payable to SARS.As for vat input is an assets in a
case that you are still going to claim it from SARS.
