Notes:
|
VALUE ADDED TAX – wrong flat rate percentage – assessments upheld in principle but figures subject to adjustment following consideration of overstated turnover due to employee fraud – default surcharges – reduced by taking into account payment made to “wrong” account – one penalty cancelled because payment by cheque treated as received by HMRC in time under VAT Regulations despite being posted to wrong ledger – reasonable excuse for all periods – surcharges cancelled – observations on the legal basis for allowing extension of time to make a return and to pay in certain cases. |
