Sales Tax Formula
Tax Amount = Price × Tax Rate% ÷ 100
Total Price = Price + Tax Amount
Example
A $200 purchase with 8.25% sales tax:
- Tax = $200 × 0.0825 = $16.50
- Total = $200 + $16.50 = $216.50
Frequently Asked Questions

Divide the total by (1 + tax rate). If you paid $216.50 at 8.25% tax, the pre-tax price was $216.50 ÷ 1.0825 = $200.
