However, if the lease is considered a capital lease, the treatment may vary, and the HST could potentially be capitalized. Always consult with a tax professional for specific situations.
HST receivable refers to the amount of Harmonized Sales Tax (HST) that a business has collected from its customers but has not yet remitted to the government.

The GST/HST credit is available to individuals and families with low or modest incomes in Canada. Eligibility typically includes Canadian residents who file their income tax returns and meet specific income thresholds. The amount of the credit varies based on family size and income level, with benefits increasing for families with children. To determine eligibility and receive the credit, applicants must apply through their tax returns, which are assessed annually.
In Canada it is the registrants who collect GST/HST from the people to whom they provide their goods and services. Depending on their filing frequency of thier GST/HST returns (monthly, quarterly or annually), they indicate the amount of GST/HST that they have collected as well as the GST/HST that they paid as inputs to their commercial activity (input tax credits). The input tax credits are deducted from the GST/HST collected and the balance (positive or negative) becomes their net tax. They then either remit (if a positive amount) or claim their "refund" (negative amount). The government doesn't actually "collect" the tax, they receive it from their tax collectors...the GST/HST registrants.
