For V A T

1) make entry while you purchase

vat input a/c  dr     xxxxx (under current asset)

           to purchase a/c      xxxxx

 2) make entry  while sale

sales a/c  dr xxxxxx

     to vat out put a/c xxxxxx (under current liabities)

The difference you have to pay i.e.,vat output--vatinput

Also you can make  2 entries to find difference by transfering the vat entries(i.e.,vat input,vatoutput)

a)vat payable a/c dr  xxxxx

          to vat input a/c           xxxx

b)vat output a/c dr xxxxx

               to vat payable a/c xxxxx

Finally you have to pay the amount which stands in vat payable a/c
