Vat payable is the amount of vat collected on behalf of the tax authority and payable to them. In other words vat payable is an output vat levied on organisation's customers through the organisation's sales invoices for onward remittance to the tax authority subsequently.
According to IFRS IAS #16:"The cost of an item of property, plant and equipment comprises:(a) its purchase price, including import duties and non-refundable purchasetaxes, after deducting trade discounts and rebates."If you are using the VAT input paid on equipment as a credit against the future VAT output received on sales, you would book the equipment cost net of VAT.
VAT will have only four rates instead of large number of rats of Sales Tax, with off setting of tax on inputs against that on output; VAT does away with tax on tax. Claiming input tax credit under VAT ensures proper invoicing. Overall, these features of VAT encourage disclosure of complete information on business turnover.
There is no such term as gross of VAT. The amount with VAT is called the gross amount while the net of VAT is the amount after the VAT has been deducted.
