Net purchase price to supplier = $200
- Jack (business) pays $240 to supplier
- Jack (business) can claim $40 VAT from tax office
Net sales price = $300
, - Jack (business) receives $360 from customer
- Jack (business) must pay $60 in VAT to tax office
Net VAT payment is thus $20
Jack (business) has created an added value of $300-$200=$100
The VAT is 0.20 * $100 = $20
VAT is collected at every point in the supply chain
