How to add VAT (Value Added Tax) to a price
This is the calculation you need to use when:
you know a price before tax (the Net price)
but want to find out the price after tax (the Gross price).
Taking-off VAT (Tax) from a price
This is the calculation you need to use when:
you know a price after tax (the Gross price)
but want to find out the price before tax (the Net price).
If we assume that VAT is at a rate of 17.5%...
Gross price
divided by
1.175
= Net price
Price after tax
divided by
1.175
= Price before tax
In the equation above, 1.175 is the divisor. To get the divisor, we need to convert the tax rate into a fraction by dividing it by 100 and then add the resulting fraction to 1.
So, if we assume that VAT is at a rate of 17.5%,
we will need to divide 17.5 by 100, giving 0.175, then add 1.
Thus the divisor is 0.175 +1 = 1.175
So now let's assume that a tax is at a new rate of 2.5%...
First, get the divisor :
2.5 100 = 0.025
0.025 + 1 = 1.025
The divisor is 1.025
So...
Gross price
divided by
1.025
= Net price
Price after tax
divided by
1.025
= Price before tax
E.g :
Rs 102.50
divided by
1.025
=Rs100
Rs 102.50 inc Tax
= Rs100 + Tax
If we assume that VAT is at a rate of 17.5%...
Net price
multiplied by
1.175
= Gross price
Price before tax
multiplied by
1.175
= Price after tax
In the equation above, 1.175 is the multiplier. To get the multiplier, we need to convert the tax rate into a fraction by dividing it by 100 and then add the resulting fraction to 1.
So, if we assume that VAT is at a rate of 17.5%,
we will need to divide 17.5 by 100, giving 0.175, then add 1.
Thus the multiplier is 0.175 +1 = 1.175
So now let's assume that a tax is at a new rate of 2.5%...
First, get the multiplier :
2.5 100 = 0.025
0.025 + 1 = 1.025
The multiplier is 1.025
So...
Net price
multiplied by
1.025
= Gross price
Price before tax
multiplied by
1.025
= Price after tax
E.g :
Rs100
multiplied by
1.025
= RS 102.50
RS 100 + Tax
= Rs102.50 inc Tax
