INPUT TAX .
Input tax or input VAT refers to the VAT due or paid by a VAT-registereq
person on importation or local purchases of goods, properties, or services
including lease or use of properties, in the course of his trade or business,
Determination of Input VAT
The VAT on purchase is usually reflected as a separate item in the VAT
invoice or VAT official receipt issued by the VAT-registered supplier.
Illustration
‘Assume for instance the following VAT invoice issued by a supplier:
Selling price P 500,000
Output VAT (12% x P500,000) ‘|
Invoice price
The input VAT of the buyer is the “Output VAT” on the VAT sales invoice or VAT
official receipt issued by the seller or supplier.
What if VAT is not separately indicated?
If the VAT is not billed separately, the selling price stated in the sales documet!
shall be deemed to be inclusive of VAT. (RR16-2005)
Illustration
Assuming that the supplier simply indicated the P560,000 invoice price withow!
separately indicating the VAT thereon, the VAT shall be computed as:
Invoice price x 12/112
Hence, P560,000 x 12/112 = P 60,000.
270chapter 9— Input VAT
The same procedure is employed when the VAT is erroneously billed by th
ed by the seller.
CREDITABLE INPUT VAT
Not all input VAT paid on purchases is : ,

withdrew the goods on April 2015.
The P24,000 input VAT shall be claimed in April not in March.
Input VAT on Purchase of Capital Goods or properties
If the monthly aggregate acquisition cost of depreciable capital goods:
- do not exceed P1,000,000 - the input VAT is claimable in the month of
purchase
- exceeds P1,000,000 - the input VAT is deferred and amortized over the
useful life in months or 60 months (i.e. 5 years), whichever is shorter
The input VAT to be amortized is called the “Deferred input VAT”.
Monthly Aggregate Acquisition Cost
The “monthly aggregate acquisition cost” of depreciable capital goods refers
to the total price, excluding VAT, agreed upon one or more assets acquired
and not the payments or installments actually made during calendar month.
(RR16-2005 as amended by RR4-2007)
The term “depreciable capital goods” refers to goods or properties with
estimated useful life of more than one year which are treated as depreciable
assets for income tax purposes, used directly or indirectly in the production
or sale of taxable goods or services. (Ibid)
Illustration 1
Isulan Company, a VAT-registered taxpayer, purchased the following capital
goods in March 2014:
Capital goods ___ Purchase price Input VAT ___ Useful life __
Equipment P 600,000 P 72,000 4years (48 months)

depreciable capital asset; hence,
2. The goods for sale are not capital goods and are also non-depreciable for income tax
purposes; hence, likewise excluded in the monthly aggregate acquisition cost.
Hence,
- Since the monthly aggregate acquisition cost do not exceed P1,000,000, the
P30,000 and P90,000 input VAT on the capital goods shall be credited
against output VAT in July 2014. These will not be credited by amortization.
The P96,000 input VAT on the purchase of goods is creditable in the month
of purchase; hence, also creditable in July 2014. : ;
- The P120,000 input VAT on the car is non-creditable as it is not incurred in
the course of business.
Sale or transfer of depreciable capital goods within Syears
If the depreciable property is sold or transferred within 5 years prior to the
exhaustion of the amortizable input tax thereon, the entire unamortized
input tax (deferred input taxon the capital goods sold/transferred can be
claimed as input tax credit during the calendar month or quarter when the
sale or transfer was made.

Non-conformance to these requisites shall render the vehicle non-
depreciable for income tax purposes.
The input VAT on the purchase of non-depreciable vehicle and all input VAT
on maintenance expenses incurred thereon are likewise disallowed for
taxation purposes. (RR12-2012)
Input VAT on Construction in Progress
Construction in progress is the cost of uncompleted construction work of an
asset. This is the accumulated progress billing of the contractor for the
extent of completion on an asset under construction. Upon completion of
the construction activity, the construction in progress iii is reclassified
to an appropriate asset account.
RR4-2007 does not consider construction in progress as purchase of capital
goods but as purchase of service.
Hence, the input tax is creditable upon payment of each progress billings of
the contractor and is neither credited upon completion of the construction
activity nor amortized over a period not more exceeding 60 months.
Illustration
In January 2014, Tandag Corporation hired the services of Aliling Construction
to build a small sales building at a P11,200,000 fixed price contract price
inclusive of VAT. The construction is subject to 10% retention which will be
released upon completion.

Claimable input VAT
Since the input VAT is claimed while the construction is still in progress, no further
additional input VAT can be claimed upon completion of the asset when it js
reclassified as a depreciable capital asset and when it is depreciated.
If the taxpayer purchases the materials to be used in the construction and
the contractor only bills the labor, the input VAT on the Construction in
progress shall be claimed upon payment of the billings. The input VAT on the
purchases of the materials shall be claimed upon purchase.
Input VAT on purchase of real property on installments
If the seller of real property is subject to VAT on the sale on a deferred-
payment basis not on the installment plan, the input VAT shall be claimable
by the buyer at the time of the execution of the instrument of sale, subject to
the amortization rule on depreciable properties.
However, if the purchase is by installment and the seller is allowed to bill
the output VAT in installment, the buyer can also claim the input VAT in the
same period as the seller recognize the output VAT. (Sec. 3 RR4-2007)
In other words, the Output VAT appearing on every billing statement of the
seller every installment which the buyer is obliged to pay is the input VAT
claimable by the buyer. This means the buyer also claims the input VAT in
installments.
Input VAT on goods or properties deemed sold
The claimable input VAT on goods or properties previously deemed sold
shall be the portion of the output VAT imposed upon the goods deemed sold
which corresponds to the goods purchased by the buyer.
Illustration
Mr. A had 1,000 pieces of merchandise which were previously deemed sold at a
value of P20,000 with an Output VAT of P2,400 upon Mr. A’s retirement from
business.
Subsequently, Mr. B bought 500 pieces of the 1,000 pieces of the deemed sold
merchandise of Mr. A for P12,000, inclusive of VAT. Mr. A indicated the invoice
number wherein the output tax on the deemed sale was imposed and billed Mr.

Code word on qualified processors: Sa MaMi Co PaRe
(Sardines, Mackerel, Milk, Cooking Oil, Packed Noodles and Refined Sugar)
The presumptive input VAT is a tax incentive to these processors of VAT-
exempt raw materials into processed food products. The apparent reason
behind the tax incentive is the absence of adequate claimable input VAT for
these entities. Without the incentive, their Output VAT is effectively their
VAT payable.

STANDARD INPUT VAT
The sale of goods and Services to the government or any of its political
subdivisions, instrumentalities or agencies, including government-owned
and controlled corporations (GOCCs) is subject to a 5% final withholding
VAT based on the gross payment.
The government, instrumentalities, agencies or GOCCs shall withhold the
final VAT before making the payment and remit the same within 10 days
following the end of the month the withholding was made.
The 5% withheld final VAT shall be deemed the actual VAT payable of the
seller. Hence, sellers to the government, instrumentalities or agencies
including GOCCs can claim an input VAT equivalent to 7% (12% - 5%) of
their sales as input VAT. This is called the “standard input VAT”.
The standard input VAT will more likely differ with the actual input VAT
traceable to the sale to the government or GOCCs. The difference between
the two is closed to costs or expenses of the seller. In other words, the
difference is recognized as an expense or gain.
Illustration 1
AVAT taxpayer made a P100,000 sales to the government invoiced at P112,000
inclusive of output VAT. The taxpayer purchased the same for P90,000 exclusive
ofP10,800input VAT.
The government will withhold P5,000 (i.e. 5% of P100,000) and release the
P107,000 net proceeds of the sale to the taxpayer. The P5,000 withheld is
presumed the actual VAT payable of the seller.
Hence,
