Offset Tax for Withholding Tax

Hello Experts

Customer has a requirement for foreign purchase to add an withholding tax rate of 20% and in the same time it will have a offset nonrecovable with the same amount

For example if the invoice amount is 10000, we will add to the amount 2000 to same account as the debit side, and deduct the amount -2000 to the withholding tax account.

The journal will be as follows

10000 Dr/ Exp, AP accrual

2000 Dr/ Same as above (Resulted from the WHT rate 20%)

-

10000 CR/ Liability

20000 CR/ WHT 20% Foreign

This is applicable if its a VAT tax using the offset feature, but there is no such feature in the WHT

Howdy, Stranger!
