Here is an example calculation:

Sales value                                 =   1000
+ Service charge  10%            =     100
+NBT 2% (1100/98*2)            =       22  (NBT optional)
+VAT 15% (1122*15%)           =    168    
Total charged to customer   =  1290

TDL Payable   to Tourist Board = (1290 - 100-168)*1%= 10.2
TDL is not generally explicilty charged to customer

Thanks very much Visio for a clear answer.

Tried to upvote - but forum closed for "registration"!!!

One further question please - what categories of business is NBT "optional" for?

Thanks

NBT is optional for everything. If you can get the customer to pay NBT then you can charge. It ultimately depends on bargaining power
