What £3,750 looks like with and without VAT
An invoice for £3,750 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 £750.00, taking the total to £4,500.00; that VAT is yours to collect and pay over to HMRC, less whatever input VAT you have incurred on your own purchases.
When £3,750 is the gross figure, say a fixed price agreed with a customer who does not care how it is split, the net is £3,125.00 and the VAT is £625.00. 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 £3,750 would be £178.57 and the net £3,571.43.
If you are on the Flat Rate Scheme the maths changes: you still charge your customer £4,500.00, but you pay HMRC a fixed percentage of that gross figure rather than £750.00 less input VAT. For a £3,750 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.
