How to manage cash basis taxes
3+
==============================
4+
5+
The cash basis taxes are due when the payment has been done and not at
6+
the validation of the invoice (as it is the case with standard taxes).
7+
Reporting your income and expenses to the administration based on the
8+
cash basis method is legal in some countries and under some conditions.
9+
10+
Example : You sell a product in the 1st quarter of your fiscal year and
11+
receive the payment the 2nd quarter of your fiscal year. Based on the
12+
cash basis method, the tax you have to pay to the administration is due
13+
for the 2nd quarter.
14+
15+
How to configure cash basis taxes ?
16+
------------------------------------
17+
18+
You first have to activate the setting in
19+
:menuselection:`Accounting --> Configuration --> Settings --> Allow Tax Cash Basis`.
20+
You will be asked to define the Tax Cash Basis Journal.

26+
27+
Once this is done, you can configure your taxes in
28+
:menuselection:`Accounting --> Configuration --> Taxes`.
29+
You can open a tax and in the *Advanced Options*
30+
tab you will see the checkbox *Use Cash Basis*. You will then have to
31+
define the *Tax Received Account*.

What is the impact of cash basis taxes in my accounting ?
39+
----------------------------------------------------------
40+
41+
Let’s take an example. You make a sale of $100 with a 15% cash basis
42+
tax. When you validate the customer invoice, the following entry is
43+
created in your accounting:
44+
45+
+-----------------------------+-----------------------+
46+
| Customer Invoices Journal | |
47+
+=============================+=======================+
48+
| **Debit** | **Credit** |
49+
+-----------------------------+-----------------------+
50+
| Receivables $115 | |
51+
+-----------------------------+-----------------------+
52+
| | Tax Account $15 |
53+
+-----------------------------+-----------------------+
54+
| | Income Account $100 |
55+
+-----------------------------+-----------------------+
56+
57+
A few days later, you receive the payment:
58+
59+
+----------------+--------------------+
60+
| Bank Journal | |
61+
+================+====================+
62+
| **Debit** | **Credit** |
63+
+----------------+--------------------+
64+
| Bank $115 | |
65+
+----------------+--------------------+
66+
| | Receivables $115 |
67+
+----------------+--------------------+
68+
69+
When you reconcile the invoice and the payment, this entry is generated:
70+
71+
+--------------------------+----------------------------+
72+
| Tax Cash Basis Journal |
73+
+==========================+============================+
74+
| **Debit** | **Credit** |
75+
+--------------------------+----------------------------+
76+
| Tax Account $15 | |
77+
+--------------------------+----------------------------+
78+
| | Tax Received Account $15 |
79+
+--------------------------+----------------------------+
80+
| Income Account $100 | |
81+
+--------------------------+----------------------------+
82+
| | Income Account $100 |
83+
+--------------------------+----------------------------+
84+
85+
.. tip::
86+
The two journal items created in the Income Account are neutral but
87+
they are needed to insure correct tax reports in Odoo.
