Example of Tax Accounting for a Consigned Inventory Transaction

This example illustrates tax accounting performed by Oracle Receipt Accounting and Oracle Cost Accounting for a consigned inventory transaction in the supply chain. This transaction uses a tax point basis of delivery, that is, taxes are accounted at receipt of the goods.

Scenario

The supplier makes a consigned shipment to the inventory organization based on a consigned purchase order (PO) for USD 1,000 with the following tax details:

  • Tax A delivery basis = 10%. Recoverable and nonrecoverable portions are both 50%

  • Tax B invoice basis = 20%. Recoverable and nonrecoverable portions are both 50%

Tax Details at Receipt and Invoice

Tax details at the consigned receipt of goods are:

  • Item value = USD 1,000

  • Tax A delivery basis = 15%, which is changed from 10% estimated at the time of PO. Recoverable and nonrecoverable portions are both 50%, or USD 75, that is, USD 1,000 * 15% * 50%.

  • Tax B invoice basis = 25%, which is changed from 20% estimated at the time of PO. Recoverable and nonrecoverable portions are both 50%, or USD 125, that is, USD 1,000 * 25% * 50%.

Tax details at the time of invoice are:

  • Item value = USD 1,000

  • Tax A delivery basis = 20%. Recoverable and nonrecoverable portions are both both 50%, however taxes are not recalculated because this transaction uses a tax point basis of delivery.

  • Tax B invoice basis = 30%, which is changed from 25% estimated at the time of receipt. Recoverable and nonrecoverable portions are both 50%, or USD 150.

Analysis

Receipt Accounting and Cost Accounting create accounting distributions when the consigned good are received, when the status changes from consigned to owned, and when the invoice is accounted.
