The Goods and Services Tax (GST) applies to most goods and services. going to implements at 4%.
The GST is a value-added tax, because the government only receives tax on the increase in the value of the good at each stage of distribution.
Zero-rated items are goods and services that at the time of this lesson have the GST percentage set of 0%. Sellers of zero-rated goods and services will receive a rebate of any GST they paid in acquiring those goods and services from their suppliers while sellers of GST exempt goods and services will not.
A GST Payable account is kept in the general ledger. This account is a record of the tax collected on sales (credited) and paid on purchases (debited). The balance represents what must be remitted to the federal government.
GST collected on sales - GST paid on purchases = GST remitted to the Government.
A credit balance in the GST Payable account is remitted to the government on a monthly, quarterly, or annual basis depending on the size of the business.
If there is a debit balance, the company will receive a refund from the government because it has paid more on purchases than it has collected on sales

How Does the Letter of Credit Process Work ?
Labels:
Letter of Credit Process Flow
How Does the Letter of Credit Process Work?
The seller (known in the Letter of Credit as the "Beneficiary") advises the buyer (known in the Letter of Credit as the "Applicant") that the purchase order is acceptable. The Beneficiary also sends the Applicant a copy of their "Letter of Credit Guidelines" to ensure that the credit is opened properly and will not require any costly amendments.
A Letter of Credit Application is completed by the Applicant and is submitted to their Bank (the Opening Bank).
The Letter of Credit is issued and sent by the Opening Bank to an Advising Bank in the country of the Beneficiary. The main role of an advising bank is to check the authenticity of the Letter of Credit before it is advised to the Beneficiary.
The Advising Bank then sends a copy of the Letter of Credit to the Beneficiary, either electronically, by fax, or by mail.
The Beneficiary must now carefully review the requirements of the Letter of Credit to ensure it has been issued per the agreed terms. The Beneficiary should make sure that they can comply with all stipulations, such as shipping terms, documentary requirements, shipping and/or expiration dates and packing and marking conditions.
If the Letter of Credit has terms that are not per the agreement, the Beneficiary should request an amendment to the Letter of Credit. This request is made directly to the Applicant, who then instructs the Opening Bank to amend the Letter of Credit.
Once the Letter of Credit is in order and the shipment is ready for export, the Beneficiary ships the goods to the freight forwarder.
The seller (or third party, such as LC Solutions) can now begin preparation of documentation required under the Letter of Credit terms.
After goods have shipped, the transport document is acquired by the Beneficiary (or LC Solutions), is checked for accuracy, matched up with other created documentation, and presented to the Negotiating Bank. (The Negotiating Bank may or may not be the same as the Advising Bank, depending on the requirements of the Letter of Credit and the wishes of the Beneficiary.)
The Negotiating Bank checks over the documentation and advises any problems they may find with the paperwork. They then either issue payment to the Beneficiary, or forward the documents to the Opening Bank for payment, depending on the terms of the Letter of Credit.

Who will provide my ERP training?
Labels:
ERP Question
The best Partners have dedicated, experienced people focused on training.
Take note : a highly skilled implementation consultant does not always make a good trainer!
Ask to meet the trainer or to audit a training session so you can evaluate the quality of the training.
for me, i will prefer a consultant with accounting knowledge, so we can communicate the same level.

Project Management: Who’s guiding this ship?
Labels:
ERP Question
You should see time for “Project Management” listed in your quote. If it’s not listed separately, it’s probably built into the quote. At first, you might balk at more overhead, but a well-managed project will save you money in the long run.
Ask: Will I have a specific project manager assigned to my project? What is this person’s experience level?
Ask to meet your project manager in person. Make sure you like their personality and trust their expertise, as you will be working very closely with this person over the duration of the project.
Insist that this person be at all critical meetings over the course of the project. For the most successful project, assign someone to manage the process on your side and to communicate regularly with the Partner.
Make sure the proposal clearly states who is responsible for what - on your side and the Partner’s side.
For example, who will do the data extraction from your current system to enter into your new system? If the Partner expects to receive the data from you and finds out you cannot provide it, he may charge you for extra billable hours.
Clarifying expectations upfront saves you both grief and dollars as the project moves forward.
