Margin scheme rule panel explaining sale minus purchase equals margin

Margin scheme rule

The rule panel is a reminder of how margin VAT is calculated for eligible Buy/Sell sales.

  • Margin VAT is based on profit, not full selling price.
  • Good buy/sell records make the stockbook easier to trust.
  • Confirm VAT treatment with your accountant for your own shop.

Step-by-step

  1. Open Accounting from the sidebar.
  2. Review the Tax Overview to see available record areas.
  3. Use Tax Return when preparing figures for review.
  4. Use Margin Stockbook for eligible UK Buy/Sell margin-scheme records where relevant.
  5. Open Setup to confirm tax settings match how your business operates.

Good to know

Confirm tax and margin-scheme handling with your accountant before relying on reports.

Record Trade-In purchases clearly so the stockbook is useful later.
