What is Sales Tax?
Sales tax is a consumption tax imposed by governments on the sale of goods and services. It is typically calculated as a percentage of the purchase price and collected by the seller at the point of sale, then remitted to the government.
Sales Tax Formulas
Tax Exclusive (Add Tax):
Sales Tax = Price × Tax Rate / 100
Total = Price + Sales Tax
Tax Inclusive (Extract Tax):
Original Price = Total / (1 + Tax Rate / 100)
Sales Tax = Total − Original Price
Tax Exclusive vs Tax Inclusive
- Tax Exclusive: The displayed price does not include tax. Tax is added at checkout. Common in the US and Canada.
- Tax Inclusive: The displayed price already includes tax. The tax component is extracted from the total. Common in Europe and Australia.
