In MYOB Tax, where a taxpayer has paid PAYG instalments to the ATO during the year, these instalments need to be entered in the PAYG/Lodge tab of the Return Properties area within the Individual Tax Return.
These figures then appear in the Tax Estimate and are used for the calculation of the Net Tax Payable/Refundable for the tax year.
To enter the PAYG instalments
From within the Individual Return requiring the PAYG instalments to appear in the tax estimate, click on the Properties icon. The Return Properties window appears.
Select the PAYG/Lodge tab. The contents of the PAYG/Lodge tab appear.
In the section labeled PAYG Instalments for 20xx estimate, (where 20xx is the tax year you are completing) there are two methods of entering the data:
Use amounts from the GST/PAYG Profile, or
Use manually calculated value.
If you have not prepared the Activity Statements on behalf of your client, select the Use Manually Calculated Value method and enter the total PAYG instalments paid.
If you have used MYOB Tax to process the Quarterly Activity Statements, the values will automatically integrate correctly into the tax estimate.
