Today, we will discuss Goods and Services Tax or GST and how we can calculate it using specific formulas. Can anyone tell me what GST is?

Student 1
Student 1

It's a tax on the supply of goods and services, right?

Teacher
Teacher

Absolutely! GST is an indirect tax. Now, we can calculate the amount of GST using the formula: `GST = Taxable Amount × GST Rate`. For example, if the taxable amount is ₹10,000 and the GST rate is 18%, what would the GST be?

Student 2
Student 2

It would be ₹1,800 because ₹10,000 × 0.18 equals ₹1,800!

Teacher
Teacher

Great job! Now, how do we find the final price after applying the GST?

Student 3
Student 3

The final price would be the cost price plus the GST.

Teacher
Teacher

Correct! Remember that: `Final Price = Cost Price + GST`. Today, we learned the first two important formulas related to GST.

Moving on, let’s discuss Input Tax Credit. Can anyone explain why a business might need ITC?

Student 4
Student 4

Isn’t it because they want to deduct taxes they’ve already paid on purchases?

Teacher

Exactly! The formula we use is `Net GST Payable = Output GST – Input GST`. Could you calculate the net GST payable if the output GST is ₹2,700 and the input GST is ₹1,800?

Student 1

It would be ₹900, right?

Detailed Summary

In this segment of Chapter 1 on Commercial Mathematics, we delve into the essential formulas associated with the Goods and Services Tax (GST). GST is an indirect tax imposed on the supply of goods and services, and knowing the relevant formulas is critical for calculating both tax liabilities and final prices.

Key formulas include:
- GST Calculation: GST = Taxable Amount × GST Rate provides a straightforward method to determine the GST payable based on the taxable amount and the applicable tax rate.
- Final Price Determination: This can be calculated by adding GST to the cost price: Final Price = Cost Price + GST.
- Input Tax Credit (ITC): Essential for businesses, this credit received for tax paid on purchases can be calculated using the formula: Net GST Payable = Output GST – Input GST, allowing businesses to offset taxes due.

Example:

A practical example illustrates these formulas in action: If a shopkeeper purchases goods worth ₹10,000 with an 18% GST and sells them for ₹15,000, they first calculate:
- Input GST: ₹10,000 × 18% = ₹1,800
- Output GST: ₹15,000 × 18% = ₹2,700
- Net GST Payable: ₹2,700 - ₹1,800 = ₹900.

Through this example, students can see how these formulas interrelate in real-world scenarios.

GST Calculation

● GST = Taxable Amount × GST Rate

Detailed Explanation

The Goods and Services Tax (GST) is calculated by multiplying the taxable amount (the price of goods or services before tax) by the GST rate (which is a percentage). For example, if the taxable amount is ₹1,000 and the GST rate is 18%, the GST would be ₹1,000 × 0.18 = ₹180. This formula helps businesses determine how much tax they need to collect from customers.

Examples & Analogies

Imagine you are buying a new phone that costs ₹20,000. If the GST rate is 18%, you would calculate how much tax to add to the price of the phone. The calculation would go like this: 20,000 × 0.18 = ₹3,600. So, the GST on the phone is ₹3,600, making the total price ₹23,600.

Final Price Calculation

● Final Price = Cost Price + GST

Detailed Explanation

The final price that a consumer pays for a product includes the base cost (or cost price) plus the GST added to that cost. For instance, if the cost price of an item is ₹5,000 and the GST was calculated at ₹900, the final price paid by the consumer would be ₹5,000 + ₹900 = ₹5,900.

Examples & Analogies

Think of buying a book. If the book costs ₹250 and the GST applicable is ₹45, when you go to the bookstore, the shopkeeper calculates the final amount you need to pay: ₹250 (cost) + ₹45 (GST) = ₹295. That's how much you hand over to buy the book!

Input Tax Credit (ITC)

Signup and Enroll to the course for listening the Audio Book

● Input Tax Credit (ITC): Credit received for tax paid on purchases.

Detailed Explanation

Input Tax Credit (ITC) is a mechanism that allows businesses to reduce the tax they have paid on purchases (inputs) from the taxes they owe on sales (outputs). For example, if a business pays ₹500 as GST on purchases and charges ₹800 GST on sales, the business can claim an ITC of ₹500 against the ₹800 it has to pay. This means the business only pays ₹300 to the government.

Examples & Analogies

Imagine you run a lemonade stand. You buy lemons and sugar for ₹200 and pay ₹36 in GST. Later, you sell your lemonade and charge your customers ₹300 and collect ₹54 in GST. With ITC, you can subtract the ₹36 you paid from the ₹54 you collected, so you only need to send ₹18 to the tax department.

Net GST Payable

Unlock Audio Book

● Net GST Payable = Output GST – Input GST

Detailed Explanation

To find out how much GST a business needs to remit to the government, you need to calculate the net GST payable. This is done by subtracting the input GST (the GST paid on purchases) from the output GST (the GST collected on sales). If a business has collected ₹3,000 in output GST but paid ₹2,000 in input GST, the net GST payable is ₹3,000 - ₹2,000 = ₹1,000.

Examples & Analogies

Let’s say you are a florist. After buying supplies, you pay ₹1,800 in GST for your flowers and supplies (input GST), and you sell your beautiful bouquets collecting ₹2,700 (output GST). To know how much you owe in GST, you calculate: ₹2,700 - ₹1,800 = ₹900. Therefore, you need to pay ₹900 in GST to the government.

Example
A shopkeeper buys goods worth ₹10,000 at 18% GST and sells them for ₹15,000.
● Input GST = ₹10,000 × 18% = ₹1,800
● Output GST = ₹15,000 × 18% = ₹2,700
● Net GST = ₹2,700 – ₹1,800 = ₹900

Detailed Explanation

In this example, we go through the steps of calculating GST for a shopkeeper. First, the shopkeeper buys inventory worth ₹10,000 with an 18% GST rate. The input GST here would be ₹10,000 multiplied by 0.18, which results in ₹1,800. Later, the shopkeeper sells this inventory for ₹15,000 and calculates the output GST as ₹15,000 multiplied by 0.18, which results in ₹2,700. To find out the net GST that the shopkeeper owes, subtract the input GST from the output GST: ₹2,700 - ₹1,800 equals ₹900.

Examples & Analogies

Think of a bakery owner who buys flour and sugar for ₹10,000 and pays ₹1,800 in GST. After baking delicious cakes, the owner sells them for ₹15,000 and collects ₹2,700 in GST. The difference between what they collected from customers and what they paid for the ingredients tells them their tax obligation. They quickly realize they need to send ₹900 to tax authorities, ensuring they keep their accounts correct!
