Tax Amount: R0.00
Total Price (Incl. Tax): R0.00
Tax Amount: R0.00
Base Price (Excl. Tax): R0.00
📘 How This Works
- Add Tax:
- Tax Amount = Base × (Tax Rate ÷ 100)
- Total Price = Base + Tax
- Remove Tax:
- Base Price = Price with Tax ÷ (1 + Tax Rate ÷ 100)
- Tax Amount = Price with Tax - Base
💡 Tip: Use this to easily add or strip VAT (e.g., 15% in South Africa) from product prices.
🧠 Formula
Tax Amount =Amount × Tax Rate ÷ 100
Total Amount (including tax) =Amount + Tax Amount
🧮 Example
-
Amount: R500
-
Tax Rate: 15%
👉 Tax Amount =500 × 15 ÷ 100 = R75
✔️ Total Price =500 + 75 = R575
