Retentions-invoicing & VAT
query regarding invoicing where there is a retention to be made
Situation is : regular billing of £400/mth fee, subject to 10% retention
so
1] is it invoiced showing (400-10% retention)=360 + vat with retention being shown on face of invoice, and when retention is contractually due, it is invoiced + vat, with sales per period now @ 400 [ & retention invoice being DR DEbtors CR BSheet retentions with CR vat]
2] or 360 + vat invoiceable through time, and when the retention is invoiced much later - it is then recorded as revenue [ there is always a chance retention may not be recovered ! ]
3] other invoicing / p+l recording
many thanks
