warranties

Hi there my question is i supply 6 months warranty with my cars through warrantywise ,they cost me around £115 plus 5% ipt ,i do not make a profit on these at all i give them away !
there are 2 ways of entering this into stockbook ,one is to go into costs and enter warranty ,which is the way i do it at present , or the other is in the finance screen click the warranty box and put the warranty there.
It came to me the other day that if i do it this way it will lower the price of the car and therefore lower the v.a.t i have to pay out , which way is the most profitable for me?
Thanks alot jon.

The government have thought of this and if you sell the warranty and reduce the car price by the same amount to save on the margin vat, then you actually have to increase the IPT rate to 17.5% to compensate.
Please see here for more information:

Note that under either circumstance you should always enter the cost side to you. The only thing to debate is whether to give the warranty away and pay more margin vat or sell it and pay more IPT.
