Ok so i failed accounting 101
Im confused,
My electrician gave me a verbal quote for a job which was 5000
This included labour, materials as well as origin energy fees, council consultant fees
I assumed it was all inclusive of gst which was a mistake as i got a bill for 5500 inc gst which is fine
One or the origin energy fees is 1000 plus gst
Is the electrician allowed to say 5000 minus 1100, balance is 3900 plus gst ie 4290
Doesn't this mean ive paid gst twice? Seems unfair that i get hit 10% evey step pd the way. Would it have been smarter for me to get the electrician to pass me the invoice and i pay it correctly?
I just want to pay the lowest amount as in not registered for gs
