　　1. GENERAL INTRODUCTION OF VAT
　　 Value added Tax is tax on each stage of value added process in the whole series of production or service. The final consumer bears the burden of the tax on the value added for the whole production series. Although it is the final consumer who bears the tax, the actual tax payment is made by the producer I service provider of each stage to the tax bureau. For general VAT taxpayers, the tax payment is the difference between the VAT paid on the purchase (input VAT) and VAT collected on sales (output VAT). The offset between output VAT and input VAT will be the VAT payable to the tax bureau by the producer of each stage.
　　 For example, there is a product called product X, and it is made of chemical Y, which is extracted from raw material Z and the purchases/selling price (excluding VAT) and the tax rate is 17%:
　　 Value
　　 Stage Purchase Sales Added Net tax paid
　　 Material Z - Chemical Y 10 3O 2O 20 x 17% = 3.4
　　 ChemicaLY→ProductX 30 ll0 80 80 x 17%= 13.6
　　 The producer of the chemical Y needs to pay l 1.7 (10 x 1.17) including VAT to its supplier and it can collect 35. 1 (30 x 1,17) including VAT from its customer. Among it, 5.1(30 x 17%) is collected on behalf of the tax bureau. Since it pays l .7 VAT during its purchase, it only needs to pay the net VAT 3.4 = 5.1 - 1.7 to tax bureau.
　　 Similarly, the producer of the product X needs to pay 35.l (30 x 1.17) including VAT to its supplier and it can collect l28.7 (110 x 1.17) including VAT from its customer. Among it, 18.7 (110 x 17%) is collected on behalf of the tax bureau. Since it pays 5.l VAT during its purchase, it only needs to pay the net VAT 13.6 = 18.7 - 5.1 to tax bureau.
　　 The above is based on the assumption that the producer of each stage does not incur any input VAT except for the purchase of materials. In summary the total tax collection (17) by the tax bureau is the tax on total value added = (110 - 10) x 17% = tl7 for the two stages.
　　 2. SCOPE OF VAT
