Today is the deadline for the VAT return and, as always, I'm pretty late. Unfortunately, I'm currently facing a problem that I can't find anything about on the Internet. Maybe you can help me out.
I bought a MacBook in November 2020 and have now booked the full price of 1636.65 euro as an operating and business expense and saved the whole thing as an attachment.
But how do I book my private use of 50%?
I was thinking of booking a private deposit of half the purchase price, i.e. 705.45 euro net + 112.87 euro VAT (16%). However, in my accounting program (Lexoffice), no VAT can be deposited for private deposits. So my idea doesn't quite work out.
Can someone tell me how to properly book my private use?
Personally, I wouldn't book anything on private.
I mostly use it privately, which is why I can only claim half of it for tax purposes. So I have to book my private use somehow.
There's an OWN CONSUMPTION account. Near your other proceeds.
