    Before you get an answer from the tutor…..

    P.O.A= Vat liability for previous year * 10 %
    you will be required to make 9 payments beginning from April to December (9 months) hence
    Total P.O.A= Vat liability for previous year * 10 % * 9
    Vat payment for current year = Vat liability for current year minus total P.O.A
    this payment is made along with one Vat return within two months of your year end!

    ……Also, When and why we multiply it by 10%…..HMRC rule I think

    For the annual accounting scheme there are as stated above by mosaso and in the OT course notes, 9 POA and a balancing payment – 10 payments in total which explains why each POA is 10% of the previous year’s liability.
