Hi Chris,
Nice to see you here! But Why do you not use <syntaxhighlight lang="scheme">...</syntaxhighlight> instead of <pre>...</pre> like in the rest of the page? It looks much nicer as you can see in Wiki Tips. --Fell (talk) 22:21, 11 January 2018 (UTC)
Quickstart Australian BAS My account setup
https://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/Quickstart_Australian_BAS#My_account_set_up
Businesses aim to make money and GST is charged on that income so it follows GST is a liability. Why complicate it with GST:GST on Sales (Liability) and GST:GST on Purchases (Asset)? Maybe GST is only an account type Liability, it is not clear from the text. If that is the case I'd suggest Liability:GST.
It would be nice to align the default Business Accounts, Guide Chapter 13, and this wiki.
> I use two tax tables -- GST on Sales, GST on Purchases.
Useful information for the Guide Ch13.

Seems steps must be:
- setup accounts (text does not specify if GST accounts are Asset or Liability)
- add Tax Table Entry(s)
- update File, Properties, Book options Business tab: Default Customer/Vendor tax table
