Go beyond one formula

Test tax-inclusive pricing inside the full business model.

The industry simulator connects pricing, volume, staffing, rent, setup costs, break-even, payback, cash flow and risk.

Adding tax

Start with the price before GST or VAT.

Multiply the before-tax amount by the tax rate to find the tax component, then add the two amounts. A 10% rate adds $10 to a $100 before-tax price.

Removing tax

Do not subtract the percentage from the inclusive total.

A tax-inclusive amount already contains tax as a fraction of the final price. Divide by one plus the tax rate to recover the before-tax amount accurately.

Check local rules

The formula cannot classify the transaction.

Registration thresholds, exemptions, zero-rated supplies, filing periods and invoice requirements vary. Confirm the correct treatment with the relevant authority or adviser.
