Not really, but thanks for trying.

But judging from how sql-ledger behaves and the reply from Mark, the short 
answer is that it is supposed to stay on the balance sheet as a liability, 
similar to how AP is the sum of everything paid (as far as I can see). The 
incoming tax has the opposite sign (negative), however. I'm pretty sure it will 
dawn on me in the end. For now, I guess I will just accept it until I get an 
indication that something is wrong.
