Tomacher Posted May 7, 2007 Share Posted May 7, 2007 I recently received a quotation from a company to supply, deliver and install a swimming pool cover.The quote I received included TVA @ 19.6% on all of the above.Having looked at the swimming pool cover suppliers website, the cost of the actual cover to includeTVA @ 19.6% = -----.-- euros.However it appears from the quotation I have received from the seperate company supplying, delivering andinstalling the cover that they are also charging me TVA @ 19.6% on the actual cover aswell.Is this right or should I be concerned !!!

Nick Trollope Posted May 7, 2007 Share Posted May 7, 2007 Their margin perhaps? Or are you expecting them to sell it to you for cost? Or do they get a discount? Or have they made a mistake? Or are they trying it on?There is no such thing as double TVA, BTW as the tax is about added value. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gluestick Posted August 2, 2007 Share Posted August 2, 2007 What people don't seem to grasp is that VAT, TVA IVA et al, is en End Use Tax: in other words whatever transactions occur in a trading cycle prior to the point of retail (or end user) sale, are Tax Neutral.The only TVA your supplier will charge you is:Materials (Net of TVA):Plus Labour:Plus Incidentals:= Total (Ex tax):Plus Tax at 19.6%Therefore the actual price you pay is in fact 119.6%: i.e. 100% (Total of Goods and Services Supplied), plus TVA @ 19.6%The TVA collected and remitted to the area Fiscale by the trader in their accounting period is calculated by adding together all the TVA they have invoiced on their work; then deducting all the TVA they have suffered by way of costs and supplies they have purchased.There are in fact certain anomolies but they do not concern this transaction.
