Fixed Asset sales VAT invoice with zero price or sales below cost
When selling Fixed Assets at a zero price or a price lower than the residual book value, after transferring such fixed assets to disposal groups in the period of the sale transaction, it is necessary to reformulate the VAT invoice through the task Formation of tax invoices for the period. Thus, the system will create the first VAT Invoice at zero or lower selling price of the corresponding Invoice. The second VAT Invoice, formed through the task Create Sales VAT Invoice for sales below cost, will be created, taking as a calculation basis the balance (residual) value of fixed assets that has developed as of the beginning of the reporting (tax) period in which such a transaction is carried out. Accordingly, the calculation takes into account all accrued depreciation and changes in value as a result of reclassification and/or modernization that are relevant to the reporting period preceding the date of sale of such fixed assets.
