Overview

This course covers the deduction of input tax by businesses. It begins by dealing with the basic requirements for a business to obtain a deduction of input tax. It then looks at the key question of whether the business seeking to deduct input tax shown on an invoice did receive the supply, and considers a number of important recent cases on this point. The special rules which apply to deduction of input tax on cars and fuel used for business purposes are covered next, leading on to a review of the impact of VAT on employee expense claims. Finally, the issues which arise when input tax deductions are claimed by businesses which make exempt as well as taxable supplies are dealt with.

A regulated qualification is delivered by a learning institution which is regulated by a government body. In England, the government body which regulates courses is Ofqual. Ofqual regulated qualifications sit on the Regulated Qualifications Framework (RQF), which can help students understand how different qualifications in different fields compare to each other. The framework also helps students to understand what qualifications they need to progress towards a higher learning goal, such as a university degree or equivalent higher education award.

An endorsed course is a skills based course which has been checked over and approved by an independent awarding body. Endorsed courses are not regulated so do not result in a qualification - however, the student can usually purchase a certificate showing the awarding body's logo if they wish. Certain awarding bodies - such as Quality Licence Scheme and TQUK - have developed endorsement schemes as a way to help students select the best skills based courses for them.
