VAT amount and total price from a net amount and VAT rate.

Worth Knowing

Value Added Tax is charged as a percentage of the net price and is standard across much of the world outside the US, with rates commonly between 15% and 25%. The wrinkle that trips people up is the difference between adding VAT to a net figure and extracting VAT already baked into a gross price — the two use different arithmetic. Unlike US sales tax, VAT is collected at each stage of production, but the consumer ultimately bears the full amount.
