    Thanks Sabina! No not really but I'll have a think about it! I'm so eager to pass this now so trying really hard

    If you are exceeding in Task 7 which is worth 17 marks (more than the first three tasks put together) you are doing well. The same principles apply to Task 6 as 7 - are you checking the additional adjustments under the days books and control account extracts - making sure it is clear if the figures are net or gross of tax (standard or reduced rate) - any strange items check in the blue reference material for correct treatment. Remember cars are not VAT reclaimable but trucks are. Good luck

    Can anyone help me on this question please for preparation of the vat return please.....a custome has purchased a company car for £1500 and vat charged at £300.... Do you deduct the vat (£300) on the purchases vat account and deduct £1500 from the purchases account? Would this be correct??

    Thanks again!

    Unless it's mainly used as a taxi or for driving instructors (I imagine it isn't), the VAT can't be claimed so £1800 would be debited on purchases with no effect on VAT.

    Thank you!

    Can someone assist me with this....if I make a deposit payment with VAT at £2500, I would need to adjust the VAT account and purchases account....would I deduct the vat a/c with 2500 and add the 2500 onto the purchases account....would this be correct?

    thank you again!!
