BAS error

I'm doing the June BAS for a simple rent earning company.

The GST Detail Accrual report shows sales of $150,000

However the BAS shows sales of $115,00

The difference is the last rent invoice dated 14/6.

I have checked everything - this invoice is the same as one in April and May.

How can this be?

    Thanks.

    Yes, I am mortified to find that the BAS report was set to cash method instead of accrual method. Not sure how this happened as all my companies are accrual. This was the only thing I didn't check!!!

    Hi KE4,

     

    I get that you're experiencing a discrepancy between the GST Detail Accrual report and the BAS. This could be due to a variety of reasons. One common error could be the accounting basis you're using. I would recommend double-checking the accounting method and the timing of the invoice. Also, you can check out this Help article: Prepare your activity statement online.
