Tax amount and total from a price and rate.
Free to use, no sign-up required. Sales Tax / VAT is one of 198 tools built into Xenition, alongside a chat that can use them for you.
Adds sales tax or VAT to a price, showing the tax amount and the total you pay.
Tax = amount × rate ÷ 100, and Total = amount + tax. Results show up to two decimal places. The tool adds tax to a pre-tax price; it does not remove tax from a price that already includes it.
An amount of 120 at 8.25% sales tax has 9.90 tax, for a total of 129.90.
Divide the gross price by (1 + rate ÷ 100) to get the net price, then subtract. A 120 price at 20% VAT is 100 net plus 20 VAT, not 120 minus 24.
Shops often work out tax per item and round each line, while this tool taxes the whole amount at once. Rounding in different places can move the total by a cent or two.
You do not have to open Sales Tax / VAT to use it. Ask Xenition in plain language and it runs the right tool, then carries the answer into whatever you are working on — a document, a spreadsheet, a deck.
