To solve the problem, we need to calculate the VAT for each invoice. The standard VAT rate in the UK is 20%.

### For Invoice A:
- **Net Value**: £125.20
- **VAT Calculation (on Net Value)**:  
  VAT = \( \text{Net Value} \times \text{VAT Rate} \)  
  VAT = \( 125.20 \times 0.20 = 25.04 \)

### For Invoice B:
- **Gross Value**: £227.88
- **VAT Calculation (on Gross Value)**:  
  VAT = \( \text{Gross Value} \times \frac{\text{VAT Rate}}{1 + \text{VAT Rate}} \)  
  VAT = \( 227.88 \times \frac{0.20}{1 + 0.20} = 227.88 \times \frac{0.20}{1.20} \)  
  VAT = \( 227.88 \times 0.1667 \approx 37.98 \)

### Table Completion:
| Invoice | Net (£) | VAT (£) | Gross (£) |
|---------|---------|---------|-----------|
| A       | 125.20  | 25.04   | 150.24    |
| B       | 189.90  | 37.98   | 227.88    |

Note: For Invoice B, the Net Value was recalculated using the given Gross Value and the calculated VAT amount.

Would you like any further details or explanations? Here are five related questions you might consider:

1. How would you calculate the net value if only the gross value and VAT rate are given?
2. What is the difference between net and gross amounts in relation to VAT?
3. How would you approach calculating VAT if given a different VAT rate?
4. Can you explain why the VAT is calculated differently when using the gross value?
5. What steps would you take if asked to reverse-calculate the net value from a gross amount?

**Tip:** When calculating VAT from a gross value, always remember to adjust the VAT rate by dividing it by (1 + VAT rate) to ensure accuracy.
