Calculation guide — United States

How do I add tax?

Let r be the percentage divided by 100. For a rate on net price: tax = net × r and gross = net + tax. For a rate on gross price: gross = net ÷ (1 − r), then tax = gross − net.

How do I remove tax?

For a rate on net price: net = gross ÷ (1 + r), then tax = gross − net. For a rate on gross price: tax = gross × r and net = gross − tax. Currency rounding can affect the final minor unit.
