Dropping a GST-on-sales line to understate GST payable would misstate the BAS and amounts to deliberately under-reporting GST to the ATO, which is unlawful (a false or misleading statement). The 1A figure must reflect all taxable sales: $8,500 on $93,500 of sales. If the GST owing is a cash-flow concern, I can instead look at legitimate options such as confirming all valid input tax credits (purchases) are claimed, checking the GST treatment of any GST-free or input-taxed sales, or contacting the ATO about a payment plan."}]}
