How to record the sale of an item with 70% professional use % (+ depreciation) in Dexxter

Question

Hello

Six months ago, I bought a second-hand van (light goods vehicle) that I use 70% for professional use and depreciate over 3 years. Now, six months later, I am considering selling it. What is the best way to do this? If I click on ‘sale’ via the ‘depreciations’ tab, I am simply taken to the screen to create a new invoice, but not specifically for the van… I should be able to sell it at its current residual value + depreciation.

Additionally, what vAT amount should I charge for this? I was only able to deduct 70% of the 21%, so do I just sell it at 21% vAT or should it be 7/10 of 21% vAT?

Finally: how do I enter this in Dexxter? A new invoice is automatically entered as 100% profit…

Thanks in advance!

It seems to me that you should just take 70% when you draw up that sales invoice?

You made purchases for 70%, so 30% automatically 'disappeared' when you made your purchases (well, disappeared, you know what I mean :) ).So now just create a sales invoice for that 70%? It may be a bit strange, but I think that should be okay for your accounting. Of course, your customer will then receive a sales invoice for 70% of what they will actually pay from...

If your customer doesn't mind, that's fine, but if they do, then maybe not so fine :)
