What £1,900 looks like with and without VAT
An invoice for £1,900 is a realistic size for a short project, a piece of equipment or a quarter of bookkeeping fees. At the standard rate the VAT is £380.00, taking the total to £2,280.00; that VAT is yours to collect and pay over to HMRC, less whatever input VAT you have incurred on your own purchases.
When £1,900 is the gross figure, say a fixed price agreed with a customer who does not care how it is split, the net is £1,583.33 and the VAT is £316.67. That is the number your accounts software should show in the VAT column. If the work was reduced rated, for example certain energy saving installations, the VAT inside £1,900 would be £90.48 and the net £1,809.52.
If you are on the Flat Rate Scheme the maths changes: you still charge your customer £2,280.00, but you pay HMRC a fixed percentage of that gross figure rather than £380.00 less input VAT. For a £1,900 job that can mean keeping a little of the VAT, or paying more if your sector rate is high or you count as a limited cost business. The flat rate tab on the main calculator runs both numbers side by side.
