How the total is built
net payable = total charges + service fee − already paid
- Total charges — pass-through costs (government fees, deposits) with no GST added.
- Service fee — the firm's professional fee, plus GST if the firm is GST-registered.
- Already paid — anything you paid earlier via pay orders is subtracted.
Why it may differ from the quote
The invoice reflects what actually happened, and it credits earlier payments — so its due amount is often lower than the quote's headline total. See Quote vs Invoice and Why is my invoice different from my quote?.
