Hi&nbsp;HamAutos&nbsp;

I'm sorry to see that no one has replied to you yet. As we're not accountants we're not permitted to advise on the accounts, amounts and tax codes when recording transactions. In these situations we do recommend speaking to your accountant to ensure the pruchase is reported correctly.
