How to Calculate Sales Tax

Sales tax is a consumption tax imposed by the government on the sale of goods and services. It is usually calculated as a percentage of the purchase price.

The Formula

Tax Amount = Price x (Tax Rate / 100)

Total Price = Price + Tax Amount

Reverse Sales Tax

Sometimes you know the total price you paid, but need to find out what the price was before tax (e.g., for business expenses).

Reverse Formula

Original Price = Total Price / (1 + Tax Rate/100)
