Discount & Tax Calculation Guide

Understanding discounts and taxes helps you make informed purchasing decisions. The discount is subtracted from the original price first, then sales tax is applied to the discounted price. Tips are calculated on the pre-tax sale price by default.

Sale Price = Original × (1 - Discount%/100)
Total = (Sale Price × (1 + Tax%/100)) + (Sale Price × Tip%/100)

Split bills evenly by dividing the total among the number of people. Tip is calculated on the sale price after discount but before tax.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Is the tip calculated before or after tax?

A: This calculator applies tip on the sale price after discount but before tax, which is the most common practice in restaurants and services.

Q: Do I pay tax on the original price or the discounted price?

A: Sales tax is generally applied to the discounted (sale) price, not the original list price. This calculator follows that convention.

Q: How do I calculate a discount backwards?

A: To find the original price from a sale price: Original = Sale Price / (1 - Discount%/100). Use this tool with trial and error to reverse-engineer discounts.
