Can you please advise how the WHT paid on royalties and other reimbursables to overseas entities are booked in the hotel’s book?
Specifically, please advise
• the account being used to book these WHT payments and,
• whether these WHT are Deductions in calculating incentive fees.

07 January 2015 WHT are deductions in calculating incentive fees and not to be booked as expenses.
The WHT deductions has to be booked under liabilities and WHT payment should be booked against liabilities.
