Value added tax
A value added tax (VAT) is a form of consumption tax. From the perspective of the buyer, it is a tax on the purchase price. From that of the seller, it is a tax only on the value added to a product, material, or service, from an accounting point of view, by this stage of its manufacture or distribution. The purpose of VAT is to generate tax revenues to the government similar to the corporate income tax or the personal income tax.
