Share on FacebookShare on TwitterShare on Linkedin

We have been inundated with messages from some of our readers who are confused about the application of Value Added Tax and Withholding Tax when paying for invoices provided by vendors.

Don’t be hard on yourself if you do not understand; most accountants also find it hard to figure these things out. Tax can be quite confusing, which is why as a small business owner, you should always have a tax consultant by your side.

To explain better we will use a scenario:

Jideowo Ltd is a supplier of printing materials and stationery that got a contract to supply stationery to MoMoney Ltd for an invoice value of N100,000. Being Vatable items, Jideowo Ltd adds a 5% VAT to the contract sum, bringing the total amount to N105,000. The invoice looks like this:

Jide Owo Invoice

What withholding Tax to deduct

Upon receiving this invoice, the accounts department of MoMoney will deduct 5% WHT from it and schedule a payment of N100,000 in favor of Jideowo Ltd. The deducted N5,000 is then remitted to the Federal Inland Revenue Service which issues a withholding tax credit note that should be given to authorized representatives of Jideowo Ltd.

VAT to Remit 

Upon receiving the payment of N100,000 and tax credit note of N5,000, Jideowo Ltd will remit a sum of N5,000 to the Federal Inland Revenue as value added tax on the transaction. The FIRS will be shown the WHT credit note of N5,000 which can be used to set-off future company income taxes.

Break-down of payment (who gets what in cash): 

Invoice amount      –   N105,000.00
FIRS (VAT)             –   N5,000.00
FIRS (WHT)            –   N5,000.00
Jideowo  Limited    –   N95,000.00

Hope we have been able to clarify this issue adequately. If you still need further explanation, hit the comment section and a member of our team will be ready to respond.

    Thanks for your explanation. I have got a question about the withholding tax, why does MoMoney deduct withholding tax and give Jideowo Ltd a WTC note.

    Reply
    • Nairametrics says:
      August 25, 2016 at 2:50 pm

      MoMoney does that because the law authorizes them to do so. It is a statutory requirement. If MoMoney does not deduct the tax then they will have to bear the cost and pay it themselves.

    Not sure I agree fully with it. My understanding is that where Momoney is a VAT agent, they will pay 95k, after deducting VAT and WHT of 5k each. The WHT credit note to be received by Jideowo will then be for 5k. Where Momoney isn’t a VAT agent, then they will pay Jideowo 100. It is there responsibility of Jideowo to remit the 5 of VAT.

    Ultimately, it boils down to the tax rate applicable to the transaction carried out

    • Olayemi says:
      August 25, 2016 at 4:39 pm

      Momoney cannot not remit VAT on behalf of Jideowo as Jideowo retains the right to remit its VAT. organisations remit VAT after netting off allowable input VAT which Momoney would deprive Jideowo of if it remit on Jideowo’s behalf. on WHT this is dependent on the Rate applicable and how the Invoice is structured. in the case above, Jideowo is a limited liability company and would be liable to a 10% WHT deducted by Momoney as explained by Nairametrics.

        Correct @Olayemi.However, if MoMoney was an upstream oil company then they are allowed by law to deduct the VAT and remit.

        • Nneka says:
          September 1, 2016 at 2:26 pm

          @olayemi its not a 10% withholding tax flat rate because Jideowo is a Ltd; as WHT rates are in different bands for different types of services or contracts. You can check the tax data card in the link below for further clarification. Cheers

    well, I think otherwise. you are suppose to apply 5% on the amount. which invariably translate to the VAT charge. so what will be the withholding is 5000. which will be deduct by the company, the company then pays 100,000 to the supplier.

    Thanks Nairametrics for the breakdown.

    However, I want to know how Jideowo would post this transactions in light of the following scenerios:
    1. If Momoney is an oil company that is statutorily required to deduct both WHT and VAT and remit on Jideowo’s behalf.

    2.If Momoney is just any other company that deducts just witholding tax and leaves Jideowo to remit its VAT i.e pays Jideowo #100,000 and gives him a WHT credit note of #5000.

    3. If Momoney pays Jideowo the whole #105,000 so he can remit both WHT and VAT himself.

    How do I post this please. I need urgent response. Thanks.

    Good day, if an invoice states #100,000 for services and #5,000 for 5% vat, is it correct to deduct the 10% WHT on the total #105,000 or on #100,000 which is the actual cost of the service.

      Yes, the construction firm will still go ahead to remit VAT. Vat will be charged regardless of whether it is net or gross. When a client tells you contract sum if Vat exclusive, they are only trying to push the VAT liability to you.

    I think we should keep this simple.
    when booking the invoice:
    1. Dr stationery acct with the total value of the invoice 105,000
    Cr Jideowo Ltd (vendor acct) 95,000
    Cr WHT payable 5,000
    Cr VAT payable 5,000
    2. When payment is made:
    Dr Jideowo Ltd (vendor acct) 95,000
    Dr WHT payable 5,000
    Dr VAT payable 5,000
    Cr Bank acct 105,000
    WHT credit note would be collected from revenue (FIRS) for onward transmission to the vendor (Jideowo Ltd) this will be used to offset their income tax at the end of the period.
    VAT in turn will also be paid to FIRS by Jideowo Ltd.

    My question goes thus: Jideowo supplied items worth 100,000 and the cost of the goods is 80000 and his profit is 20000. Will the WHT and VAT be on the profit Or on both the cost and profit. If I follow your explanation a time will come if the WHT and VAT is on the total value Jideowo will not make profit because what he’s paying as tax is more than the profit

    @Nairametrics, I need clarification on this my special case. As an insurance broker, when i receive premium (call it A) directly from clients, i deduct my commission (call it B) first. Then i compute the VAT (call it C) on my commission and deduct further from the balance (call it A minus B). So i remit A minus B minus C to the insurance company.

    When clients pay directly to the insurance company, I expect my commission from the insurance company. They do it this way: they compute my commission and charge WHT on it. Hence I get less than my commission. How do i treat VAT in that case, knowing that WHT has been deducted?

    Hello Nairametrics,

    Apologies for reviving this thread again. Please just for the case of clarity for monthly VAT filing. Please clarify:

    Invoice submitted: N105,000(N100,000 + N5,000)
    Payment Received: N95,000
    Assuming 5% VAT (N5,000) and 5% WHT (N5,000) were deducted.

    So for the sake of clarity of monthly VAT filing:

    Do I NOT file my VAT on that transaction for the month and expect a tax credit note of 5% WHT (for the N5,000) which I pay and then apply to my income tax. Should I also expect that the 5% VAT which was also deducted will be paid by the company I supplied to?

    OR

    Do I GO AHEAD and pay/file my 5% monthly VAT as usual and expect a tax 10% credit note from the company I supply to, which I then pay and apply to my income tax.

    Your prompt feedback is highly appreciated. Thank you.

    what is the best way to submit a quotation to a company for supplies so that the acutal gain to be made from the transaction is not lost in the business. assuming i am to supply to a govt agency goods and services worth 100,000. my gain in that deal is just N10,000. after i sent d bill with 5% vat, the total will be 105,000 but the company paid 95,000 thereby reducing my gain downwards. how best is to do such deal to retain my 10,000 gain.

    Is WHT applicable to all services enjoyed by a company? E.g Cable subscriptions , electricity bills and other utilities

    My question is on WHT rate, i learnt that if a company has a contract of service or supply with a vendor , the company will deduct 5% wht on the vendor invoice but if it is like just one off supply or services ( which means no contractual agreement between the company and the Vendor) then you deduct 10% WHT on its invoice, how true is this?

    I want to know how Jideowo would post this transactions in light of the following scenerios:
    1. If Momoney is an oil company that is statutorily required to deduct both WHT and VAT and remit on Jideowo’s behalf.

    2.If Momoney is just any other company that deducts just witholding tax and leaves Jideowo to remit its VAT i.e pays Jideowo #100,000 and gives him a WHT credit note of #5000.

    3. If Momoney pays Jideowo the whole #105,000 so he can remit both WHT and VAT himself.

    How do I post this please. I need urgent response. Thanks.

    Comment:we have a contractor who in his invoice brings a bill of #440,000 without stating vat, but in the course of raising payment voucher, the superior officer will direct that we should build 5% VAT to the #440,000 before deducting the 5%VAT from the new gross. pls I need clarification. Is it the right procedure.

    Since N105,000 was what was invoice to MoMoney and in return MoMoney will deduct 5% WHT from it and schedule a payment of N100,000 in favour of Jideowo Ltd. The deducted N5,000 is then remitted to the Federal Inland Revenue Service.Also, Jideowo Ltd still go ahesd to pay 5% VAT, what will Jideowo Ltd write in the receipt for Momoney when she demand for her receipt?

    Pls assist with solution to this situation. If a Gas Supplier supplies Gas to a manufacturing company. Upon payment period, should WHT be deducted from the invoice value or not?
    Bearing in mind that, the Gas Supplier is claiming that he operates in the Petroleum Industry, and as such his payment should not be subjected to WHT deduction.

    Hi Nairametrics, Please clarify if a business is expected to pay VAT on invoice or on actual receipts.

    In other words am I liable to pay VAT on sales for which payment was not made?

    How do one compute VAT and WHT in a contract service where the contractor states a total sum for the service without separating the cost of material and cost of labour.
