Business activity statement (BAS)

This article provides information about the Business activity statement (BAS) for Australia. All businesses submit the BAS form to the Australian Taxation Office (ATO) to report their taxation obligations.

The Business activity statement (BAS) feature helps you fill in your BAS. The statement resembles the calculation worksheet that the ATO provides when you receive the BAS form in the mail.

The BAS includes the following taxation liabilities:

  • Goods and Services Tax (GST) amounts that you owe the ATO from sales
  • GST amounts that the ATO owes you from purchases
  • Pay-As-You-Go (PAYG) Tax Withheld
  • PAYG Installment
  • Fringe Benefit Tax (FBT)

Set up sales tax reporting codes

Set up sales tax reporting codes by following the instructions in Set up sales tax reporting codes. The following reporting codes are associated with fields on the BAS report.

Taxable purchases and Sales tax receivable G10 and G15

Default 102 1D Wine equalization tax refundable Sales tax receivable 1D
Default 201 1E Luxury car tax payable Sales tax payable 1E

You can also set up the following reporting codes, and then make transactions or manually fill in corresponding fields of the BAS report. For more information, see the Generate additional BAS report boxes for the settlement period section later in this article.

Report layout Reporting code Report text Field on the BAS report
Default 700 7 Deferred company/ fund installment 7
Default 701 7A Deferred GST on imports 7A
Default 400 4 Pay-As You Go Withholding 4

Default 502 5B Credit arising from reduced Pay As You Go installment 5B
Default 31 W1 Total of salary, wages, and other payments W1
Default 32 W2 Amounts withheld from salary, wages, and other payments W2

Default 61 F1 ATO-calculated fringe benefits tax installment F1
Default 62 F2 Estimated total fringe benefits tax payable F2
Default 63 F3 Varied fringe benefits tax installment F3

You can also set up the following reporting codes. However, we recommend that you use reporting codes 1,013 through 1,015, which generate both field G10 and fields G13 through G15, because the amount in field G10 of the BAS report must contain the amounts in fields G13 through G15.

Report layout Reporting code Report text Field on the BAS report
Default 13 G13 Acquisitions for making input taxed sales & income and other supplies G13
Default 14 G14 Acquisitions with no GST in the price G14
Default 15 G15 Non-income tax deductible acquisitions G15

Example

Generate the BAS statement

The following example shows how you set up sales tax codes and sales tax reporting codes, post transactions, and generate and print the BAS report. It uses the USMF legal entity.

  1. Go to Organization administration > Organizations > Legal entities.
  2. On the Tax registration FastTab, in the Tax registration number field, enter AU89434123400.
  3. Go to Tax > Indirect taxes > Sales tax > Sales tax codes, and set up the following sales tax codes.
Sales tax code Percentage Description
CAPITAL 10 Capital acquisitions at a rate of 10 percent.
GST 10 Taxable sales and purchases at a rate of 10 percent.
NONDED CAP 10 (non-deductible part = 25%) Capital acquisitions at a rate of 10 percent, where the non-deductible part of tax is 25 percent.
EXPORTS 0 Export sales where the Exempt option is set to Yes.
FREE 0 GST-free sales and purchases where the Exempt option is set to Yes.
CAPFREE 0 GST-free capital acquisitions where the Exempt option is set to Yes.
LUX 10 Luxury car sales and purchases at a rate of 10 percent.
  1. On the Report setup FastTab, assign reporting codes to sales tax codes.

    The following table shows how to assign the sales tax reporting codes to sales tax codes.

Sales tax code Taxable sales Tax-free sale Sales tax payable Taxable purchases Tax-free purchase Sales tax receivable

Note

This configuration is just an example and depends on the structure of the sales tax codes that you use. To calculate values and transfer them to the sales tax report, set a relevant sales tax reporting code in one or more fields on the Report setup tab for each tax code that you use in the sales tax payment process.

  1. Post the following transactions.

For example, for customer invoices, go to Accounts receivable > Invoices > All free text invoices. For vendor invoices, go to Accounts payable > Invoices > Invoice journal.
