Beginner guide

Choose add or reverse first

Use add mode when you know the pre-tax price and want the final total. Use reverse mode when you already have the total and want to know the price before tax.

This works for VAT, GST, sales tax, or any similar percentage tax as long as you enter the correct rate.

  • Add mode: price before tax becomes final price.
  • Reverse mode: final price is split into pre-tax price and tax.
  • If several taxes apply, combine the effective rate only when that matches local rules.

Formula

Add mode: total = price x (1 + tax rate). Reverse mode: pre-tax price = total / (1 + tax rate).

Example

$100 at an 8.25% tax rate totals $108.25.
