Calculate new gross price, value of the VAT, net amount

Calculate the Gross Amount 550 with a different VAT Rate: from 26% to 2%

VAT. Gross Amount. Net Amount.

  • VAT = Value Added Tax is a tax charged of each economic agent involved in the business cycle and transferred to the state budget. VAT is charged as a percentage (VAT rate) of value and added at every level of production of a good.
  • Original VAT Rate = 26%
  • New VAT Rate = 2%
  • The VAT Rate value can be written in several equivalent ways:
  • 26% = 26/100 = 26 ÷ 100
  • Net Amount = The amount without VAT (excluding VAT)
  • Gross Amount = 550 (Pound, Euro) = The amount of money with VAT included (including VAT)
  • Gross Amount = Net Amount + Original VAT Amount

1. Rewrite the Gross Amount formula:

  • Formula:
  • 1) Original VAT Amount = Original VAT Rate × Net Amount
  • 2) Gross Amount = Net Amount + Original VAT Amount
  • ...
  • Substitute for the Original VAT Amount in the Gross Amount formula:
  • Gross Amount = Net Amount + Original VAT Rate × Net Amount
  • ...
  • Please see that the Net Amount is a common factor:
  • Gross Amount = Net Amount + Original VAT Rate × Net Amount
  • Gross Amount = Net Amount × (1 + Original VAT Rate)

  • Formula:
  • Gross Amount = Net Amount × (1 + Original VAT Rate)
  • Write the Net Amount based on the Gross Amount:
  • Net Amount = Gross Amount ÷ (1 + Original VAT Rate)

Calculation:

Net Amount =


550 ÷ (1 + 26%) =


550 ÷ (1 + 26/100) =


550 ÷ (1 + 26 ÷ 100) =


550 ÷ (1 + 0.26) =


550 ÷ 1.26 ≈


436.507936507937 ≈


436.51
(Rounded off to a max. of 2 decimals)


3. Calculate the VAT Amount due to the Original VAT Rate:

  • Formula:
  • Original VAT Amount = Gross Amount - Net Amount
  • The VAT Amount, charged by the operators, is transferred to the state budget.

Calculation:

Original VAT Amount =


550 - 436.507936507937 =


113.492063492063 ≈


113.49
(Rounded off to a max. of 2 decimals)


4. Calculate the VAT Amount due to the New VAT Rate:

  • Formula:
  • New VAT Amount = New VAT Rate × Net Amount
  • The VAT Amount, charged by the operators, is transferred to the state budget.

Calculation:

New VAT Amount =


2% × 436.507936507937 =


2/100 × 436.507936507937 =


2 ÷ 100 × 436.507936507937 =


2 × 436.507936507937 ÷ 100 =


873.015873015874 ÷ 100 ≈


8.730158730159 ≈

8.73
(Rounded off to a max. of 2 decimals)


5. Calculate the New Gross Amount.

  • Formula:
  • New Gross Amount = Net Amount + New VAT Amount

Calculation:

New Gross Amount =


436.507936507937 + 8.730158730159 =


445.238095238096 ≈

445.24
(Rounded off to a max. of 2 decimals)


Net Amount = 436.51
Original VAT Amount (26%) = 113.49
New VAT Amount (2%) = 8.73
New Gross Amount = 445.24 (- 104.76 vs. initial)

Calculate the Gross Amount (With Tax Included) With Different, New, VAT Rates

Step 1: Calculate the Net Amount (Without Tax)

Step 2: Add the New Tax Amount to the Net Amount
