Excise taxed prices

1. For domestically produced
goods, the excise taxed price is determined as follows:
Excise
taxed price
=
Selling
price exclusive of value-added tax
1
+ Excise tax rate
The selling price exclusive of value-added
tax is determined under the law on value-added tax.
In case an excise tax-liable
goods producer has its goods sold by its dependent cost-accounting
establishments (affiliates or shops), the price serving as a basis for excise
tax calculation is the selling price exclusive of value-added tax set by such
an affiliate or shop. For a producer that has its goods sold by agents at
prices set by the producer for commissions, the price serving as a basis for
determining the excise taxed price is the commission-inclusive selling price
exclusive of value-added tax set by that producer.
In case an excise tax-liable
goods producer has its goods sold by trading establishments, the price serving
as a basis for excise tax calculation is the selling price exclusive of
value-added tax set by that producer, which must not be 10% lower than the
average selling price set by such a trading establishment.
If the producer's selling price
is lower than the selling price set by the trading establishment by more than
10%, the excise taxed price shall be fixed by the tax agency under the Law on
Tax Administration and guiding documents.

value-added tax-exclusive selling price of I liter of canned beer is VND
20,000, and the excise tax rate for beer (applicable from January 1, 2010, through
December 31, 2012) is 45%, then the excise taxed price is determined as

end of the quarter, company A and customer B make finalization: the number of
recoverable bottles is 8(X) and the quantity of irrecoverable bottles is 200.
Based on the number of recoverable bottles, company A returns to customer B a
sum of VND 960,000 and shall include in excise taxed turnover the deposit of
VND 240,000 (200 bottles x VND 1,200/bottle) for the number of irrecoverable
bottles.

members to the golf business establishment (including also the charge for golf

the depositor, the business establishment will have the paid tax amount
refunded by deducting it in the subsequent period's payable tax amount. If no

Example 6:
In a tax declaration period,
establishment A has the following operations:
+ It imports 10,000 liters of
liquor and has paid an excise tax amount of VND 250 million upon importation (based
on the receipt of excise tax payment at the stage of importation).
+ It ex-warehouses 8.000 liters
for producing 12,000 bottles of liquor.
+ It sells 9,000 bottles of
liquor; the excise tax amount payable for these 9,000 bottles is VND 350
million.
+ The excise tax amount already
paid at the stage of importation of liquid liquor for 9,000 sold bottles of
liquor is VND 150 million.
So, the excise tax amount
payable by establishment A is this period will be:
VND 350 million - VND 150
million = VND 200 million.
In case the excise tax amount
already paid for raw materials equivalent to products sold in the period cannot
yet be accurately determined, the previous period’s data may be used to
temporarily calculate the deductible excise tax amount. Tax finalization shall
be made based on actual data at the end of a month or quarter. In all cases,
the deductible excise amount must not exceed the excise tax amount calculated
for raw materials according to econo-technical norms of products. The
production establishment shall register econo-technical norms of products with
its managing tax agency.
