Which of the following most accurately describes the problem?

In the specimen invoice which appeared in the article about Value Added Tax on page 39 of CM last week, the 2+ per cent discount on the transport charge of £44.10 was deducted from the VAT payable. This was an error. Only 10 per cent of the discount, or 1 lp, is in fact deductible; this represents the VAT content of the discount.

The total VAT payable in the example then becomes £4.31.
