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

Calculate the Gross Amount 300 with a different VAT Rate: from 5% to 6%

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 = 5%
  • New VAT Rate = 6%
  • The VAT Rate value can be written in several equivalent ways:
  • 5% = 5/100 = 5 ÷ 100
  • Net Amount = The amount without VAT (excluding VAT)
  • Gross Amount = 300 (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 =


300 ÷ (1 + 5%) =


300 ÷ (1 + 5/100) =


300 ÷ (1 + 5 ÷ 100) =


300 ÷ (1 + 0.05) =


300 ÷ 1.05 ≈


285.714285714286 ≈


285.71
(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 =


300 - 285.714285714286 =


14.285714285714 ≈


14.29
(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 =


6% × 285.714285714286 =


6/100 × 285.714285714286 =


6 ÷ 100 × 285.714285714286 =


6 × 285.714285714286 ÷ 100 =


1,714.285714285716 ÷ 100 ≈


17.142857142857 ≈

17.14
(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 =


285.714285714286 + 17.142857142857 =


302.857142857143 ≈

302.86
(Rounded off to a max. of 2 decimals)


Net Amount = 285.71
Original VAT Amount (5%) = 14.29
New VAT Amount (6%) = 17.14
New Gross Amount = 302.86 (+ 2.86 vs. initial)

Used symbols: % percent, ÷ divide, × multiply, = equal, / fraction bar, ≈ approximately equal. Writing numbers: comma ',' as thousands separator; point '.' as a decimal mark.
