Of which, the selling price exclusive of value-added tax is determined under the law on value-added tax and the environmental production tax is determined under the law on environmental protection tax.
a/ In case an excise tax-liable goods producer sells goods via its dependent cost-accounting establishments, the price as a basis for detennining the taxed price is the selling price exclusive of value-added tax and environmental protection tax (if any) of those dependent cost-accounting establishments. For a producer that sells goods via agents selling goods at the producer's prices for commission only, the price as a basis for determining the taxed price is that producer's commission-inclusive selling price exclusive of value-added tax and environmental protection tax (if any);
b/ In case an excise tax-liable goods producer sells goods via traders, the price as a basis for excise tax calculation is that producer's selling price exclusive of value-added lax and environmental protection tax (if any), which must not be 10% lower than the average selling price applied by these traders. Particularly, the average selling price of cars applied by traders which is used for comparison is the selling price announced by the manufacturer for a car according to its quality standards, excluding equipment and accessories which are further installed by traders at customers' request.
If a producer's selling price is more than 10% lower than the selling price applied by traders, the taxed price shall be assessed by tax agencies under the Law on Tax Administration and its guiding documents.
