How do you calculate vat intput and output?
To calculate VAT input and output, first identify the VAT you paid on purchases (input VAT) and the VAT you charged on sales (output VAT). Input VAT is the tax included in the cost of goods or services acquired for business use, while output VAT is the tax collected from customers on sales. To determine the VAT you owe to the tax authorities, subtract the total input VAT from the total output VAT. If the output VAT exceeds the input VAT, you pay the difference; if the input VAT exceeds the output VAT, you may be eligible for a VAT refund.

How is VAT collected?
Value Added Tax (VAT) is collected at each stage of the supply chain, from production to final sale. Businesses charge VAT on their sales (output VAT) and pay VAT on their purchases (input VAT). The difference between the output VAT collected and the input VAT paid is remitted to the tax authorities. This system ensures that VAT is levied on the value added at each stage of production and distribution.
Is Input vat what you give to sars or what sars give you?
Input VAT is the value-added tax that a business pays on its purchases and expenses, which can be claimed back from the South African Revenue Service (SARS). Essentially, it is the VAT you pay to suppliers when acquiring goods or services. When you file your VAT return, you can deduct this input VAT from the output VAT you collect on sales to determine your final VAT liability to SARS. Therefore, Input VAT is what you can reclaim from SARS, rather than what you give to them.
What is the meaning of deferred vat input?
Deferred VAT input refers to the value-added tax (VAT) that a business has incurred on its purchases but has not yet claimed as a tax credit because it plans to offset it against future VAT liabilities. This typically occurs when a business's input VAT exceeds its output VAT in a given period, leading to a situation where the excess can be carried forward to future tax periods for recovery. This mechanism helps businesses manage cash flow and ensures that they are not unfairly taxed on their expenses.

When do you know when vat is due?
Input Tax paid on purchases (i.e. output tax collected in the purchase bills) is called Input Tax Credit. Input Tax Credit available on all purchase bills should be arrived (including the Input Tax Credit to be adjusted if any during the previous month). Input Tax Credit is eligible only on the taxable purchases made (from the registered dealers with TIN in force) within the State and VAT shown separately. VAT payable on the taxable sales or deemed taxable sales is called Output Tax payable. The input tax paid on the taxable purchases as above should be deducted from the output tax payable and if the output tax payable is greater than input tax credit, the balance amount to be paid to Government is called Output Tax due/payable. If the Output tax payable is lesser than the Input Tax Credit, the excess amount is called Input Tax Credit available and the same will be carried forward to the next month. The Input Tax Credit carried forward to the next months will be adjusted in the ensuing months. Thus the VAT liability will be calculated only after applying the above procedure at the end of the calendar month and VAT liability arises on the first day of the ensuing month in case of running concern.

Can a vat vendor claim input vat on goods purchased from a non vat vendor?
Assuming that we are a registered VAT vendor, when we make a purchase from a non-VAT vendor we cannot claim any VAT input from the purchase due to the fact that no VAT was charged on the supply by the supplier who is a non-VAT vendor.
