 ### Value Added Taxes (VAT)
 
 Many times, the tax paid by you to a Supplier for an Item is the same tax you collect from your Customer. In many regions, what you pay to your government is only the difference between what you collect from your Customer and pay to your Supplier. This is called Value Added Tax (VAT). 
 
-For example you buy Items worth X and sell them for 1.3X. So your Customer pays 1.3 times the tax you pay your Supplier. Since you have already paid tax to your Supplier for X, what your owe your government is only the tax on 0.3X.
+For example you buy Items worth X and sell them for 1.3X. So your Customer pays 1.3 times the tax you pay your Supplier. Since you have already paid tax to your Supplier for X, what you owe your government is only the tax on 0.3X.
 
 This is very easy to track in ERPNext since each tax head is also an Account. Ideally you must create two Accounts for each type of VAT you pay and collect, “Purchase VAT-X” (asset) and “Sales VAT-X” (liability), or something to that effect. Please contact your accountant if you need more help or post a query on our forums!
