Is GST receivable recorded on any purchase a business makes that is taxed?

I would assume that the GST which is like a sales tax or value added tax works the same way. In this case purchases by companies for resale are not usually taxed while items purchased by a company for final usage is taxed such as office supplies, computers, tools, etc. Raw materials or items to be used to go into production of a finished product would not be taxed when purchased by a company manufacturing items, but would be taxed when sold to the final user so that it is only taxed once. For instance, wood, nails, glue, stain, varnish, etc. used to manufacture a rocking chair would not be taxed when purchased by the manufacturer but when sold to the final customer it would then be taxed.

Taxes on consumers vary by state. Each state has its own laws regarding what is taxed. For information on what is taxed in your state: Go to your states website and search for tax information. Ex.
