Thanks coaster. That is an useful one. But dont you think that raises the price level of the commodity product and there is enough scope to evade the tax in terms of the settlement b/n the buyer and the seller?

Value added tax is a tax on the increase in value of a service or product.

Organisation that are VAT registered can claim back VAT on their purchases or inputs, but have to charge VAT on their sales or outputs.

Its basically a way of having companies collect tax on the value they create.

( Its also a very unpopular Tax in the UK)

VAT is set to bring in around £76bn for the government this year, or 14% of all tax income.
