Legal basis: The sales amount mentioned in Item 6 of Article 12 of the Detailed Rules for the Implementation of the Provisional Regulations on Consumption Tax in People's Republic of China (PRC) does not include the value-added tax payable to the buyer. If the VAT tax is not deducted from the taxpayer's taxable consumer goods sales or the price is collected together with the VAT tax because the special VAT invoice is not allowed, it shall be converted into sales excluding VAT tax when calculating the consumption tax. The conversion formula is: sales of taxable consumer goods = sales including VAT ÷( 1+ VAT rate or collection rate).
