Hi, I was just wondering if anyone can help with the journal for allocating output tax at deregistration on a car that was purchased. The car was only purchased 3 months before deregistering, and input tax was claimed. Am I correct in that I declare output tax on the NBV at the date of deregistering? If so and for example the VAT was £2000, would I Cr Output Tax £2000 and Dr Assets £2000 or does it get posted as a P&L cost? Thank you
I take it this is a pool car or taxi that the VAT was claimed back on.
As far as I am aware you need to use the market value of the car at the time of deregistration and if this is more than £6,000 then pay back the output tax, the journal would be to Debit FA Additions of the amount and Credit the Output VAT
