Understanding VAT (Value Added Tax)

VAT (Value Added Tax): VAT is a consumption tax charged on goods and services at each stage of production or sale. Businesses collect VAT on behalf of the government, and customers ultimately pay it as part of the final price.
Net Price: The price before VAT is added.
VAT Amount: The tax charged, calculated as a percentage of the net or gross price.
Gross Price: The total price including VAT.

👉 Example: If a product costs $500 and VAT is 18%, then:
Net Price = $500
VAT = $90
Gross Price = $590

VAT Calculation Formula

Adding VAT (Net → Gross):
Gross Price = Net Price × (1 + VAT Rate/100)

VAT Amount = Gross Price − Net Price

Excluding VAT (Gross → Net):
Net Price = Gross Price ÷ (1 + VAT Rate/100)

VAT Amount = Gross Price − Net Price

Examples of VAT Calculations

Example 1: Add VAT (Net → Gross)

Net Price = $1,200 | VAT Rate = 15%

VAT = 1200 × 15/100 = $180

Gross Price = 1200 + 180 = $1,380

✅ Result:
Gross Price (after VAT) = $1,380
VAT Amount = $180

Example 2: Exclude VAT (Gross → Net + VAT portion)

Gross Price = $590 | VAT Rate = 18%

Net Price = 590 ÷ 1.18 ≈ $500

VAT = 590 − 500 = $90

✅ Result:
Gross Price (with VAT) = $590
VAT Amount = $90

Example 3: Add VAT (Net → Gross)

Net Price = $2,000 | VAT Rate = 5%

VAT = 2000 × 5/100 = $100

Gross Price = 2000 + 100 = $2,100

✅ Result:
Gross Price (after VAT) = $2,100
VAT Amount = $100

Example 4: Exclude VAT (Gross → Net + VAT portion)

Gross Price = $1,380 | VAT Rate = 15%

Net Price = 1380 ÷ 1.15 = $1,200

VAT = 1380 − 1200 = $180

✅ Result:
Gross Price (with VAT) = $1,380
VAT Amount = $180
