  • 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 = 20%
  • New VAT Rate = 4%
  • The VAT Rate value can be written in several equivalent ways:
  • 20% = 20/100 = 20 ÷ 100
  • Net Amount = The amount without VAT (excluding VAT)
  • Gross Amount = 7.88 (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 =


7.88 ÷ (1 + 20%) =


7.88 ÷ (1 + 20/100) =


7.88 ÷ (1 + 20 ÷ 100) =


7.88 ÷ (1 + 0.2) =


7.88 ÷ 1.2 ≈


6.566666666667 ≈

(Rounded off to a max. of 2 decimals)


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

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

Calculation:

Original VAT Amount =


7.88 - 6.566666666667 =


1.313333333333 ≈

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 =


4% × 6.566666666667 =


4/100 × 6.566666666667 =


4 ÷ 100 × 6.566666666667 =


4 × 6.566666666667 ÷ 100 =


26.266666666668 ÷ 100 ≈


0.262666666667 ≈

0.26
(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 =


6.566666666667 + 0.262666666667 =


6.829333333334 ≈

6.83
(Rounded off to a max. of 2 decimals)


Net Amount = 6.57
Original VAT Amount (20%) = 1.31
New VAT Amount (4%) = 0.26
New Gross Amount = 6.83 (- 1.05 vs. initial)
