GEM-CAR FAQ
Restaurant Bill with Tips
Note: Gratuities are not taxable.
You can claim half of the taxes in an entertainment expense.
GEM-CAR already has this function in the accounting account.
This means that if you enter an entertainment expense transaction, it will automatically split the taxes in half on the transaction.
The taxable percentage tells GEM-CAR to split the taxes 50% to help you compose your transaction.
It will not split the taxes on your transaction in half when you write it to the general ledger.
For example, if the GST on the invoice is $12.90, GEM-CAR will suggest $6.45.
In other words, if you manually enter $12.90 in the transaction, GEM-CAR will post the same amount to the general ledger.
