Formula

Remove tax from a total

Net price = gross total / (1 + VAT rate / 100). The tax amount is the gross total minus the net price.

Example

120 at 20% becomes 100 + 20

If the total is 120 and the tax rate is 20%, the pre-tax amount is 100 and the tax amount is 20.

Accuracy

Use the exact rate

Some countries, states, provinces, and products use reduced or combined rates. Change the rate when your invoice uses a different one.
