Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between adding and removing tax?

Adding tax multiplies your base amount by (1 + tax rate). Removing tax (reverse calculation) divides a tax-inclusive price by (1 + tax rate) to find the pre-tax base price.

Can I use this for income tax calculations?

Yes — enter your taxable income and your marginal tax rate to calculate the tax amount. Note that most income tax systems use progressive bands, so you may need to calculate each band separately.

Is the calculator currency-specific?

No — it works with any currency. Simply enter the amount in your local currency and apply your local tax rate.

What is a reverse tax calculation?

A reverse (or extract) calculation finds the pre-tax price when you only know the tax-inclusive total. For example, if you paid $120 including 20% tax, the pre-tax price was $100.

Is this calculator free?
