The commission for consignment stock includes GST, in Australia and New Zealand. For example, a 10% commission on a $100 sale results in:

  • $9.00 commission and $1.00 GST in Australia
  • $8.50 commission and $1.50 GST in New Zealand.

How the G/L codes work for consignment stock
The commission for consignment stock includes GST, in Australia and New Zealand.
For example, a 25% commission on a $100 sale in Australia results in:

  • $25 commission divided between:
  • $2.27 credited to the GST G/L account (10% GST)
  • $22.73 credited to the Commission G/L account (net of GST).
  • $75.00 credited to the Creditors control account.


In New Zealand, the same example results in:

  • $25 commission divided between:
  • $3.26 credited to the GST G/L account (15% GST)
  • $21.74 credited to the Commission G/L account (net of GST).
  • $75.00 credited to the Creditors control account.
