Example
You create a purchase order for a vendor. The purchase order has an amount of 9,000.00 and a maximum retail price, or credit, of 6,000.00. The maximum retail price was originally 9,000.00 but was changed to 6,000.00. The purchase order was updated with the changed amount.
The purchase order has both excise tax and sales tax.
The following table shows the tax details and the formula that is used to calculate each tax component.
Sales tax group or item sales tax group |
Tax component |
Percentage |
Formula |
|---|---|---|---|
MRP amount |
BED (Basic Excise Duty) |
10 |
Maximum retail price |
AED (Additional Excise Duty) |
10 |
Maximum retail price |
|
Excise surcharge |
5 |
Maximum retail price + BED + AED |
|
PE Cess (Primary Education Cess) |
1 |
Excluding line amount + Excise surcharge |
|
SHE Cess (Secondary and Higher Education Cess) |
1 |
Excluding line amount + Excise surcharge |
|
LST (Local Sales Tax) |
4 |
Maximum retail price amount + BED + AED + Excise surcharge + PE Cess + SHE Cess |
The base amount is calculated by using the following formula:
Original amount = Maximum retail price - (BED + AED + Excise surcharge + PE Cess + SHE Cess + LST)
Therefore, the basis that is used to calculate tax is 4,574.40.
The tax amount for each tax component is calculated as follows:
BED: 4,574.40 * .10 = 457.44
AED: 4,574.40 * .10 = 457.44
Excise surcharge = (4,574.40 + 457.44 + 457.44) * .05 = 274.46
PE Cess: 274.46 * .01 = 2.74
SHE Cess: 274.46 * .01 = 2.74
LST: 4,574.40 + 457.44 + 457.44 + 274.46 + 2.74 + 2.74 = 5,769.22 * .04 = 230.77
Therefore, the total tax is 1,425.60.
Note
In the Formula designer form, the Price incl. tax check box must be selected for each taxable basis. The taxable basis is the maximum retail price excluding the line amount.
