Formula when i know the GST total |
2017-10-31 |
|
From Duncan:
HI - I've added up the GST from a pile of receipts and would like to know what the total cost of goods would be without GST. I don't want to add up 100's of receipts again with the cost before GST but I do need this total cost.
i.e.) I know I paid $400 GST, what would the formula be to find out the cost of what I purchased before taxes? Your help is much appreciated!

Two-tiered GST system |
2015-03-14 |
|
From Ruby:
This question showed up in one of my Math assignments and nothing on the internet seemed to help me find a way to calculate it.
A certain country has a two-tiered GST system. For the first $1500 of any item, GST is levied at 10% and any amount over $1500 is levied at 15%.
Determine the amounts that give the following GSTs.
a) $350
b) $780

What is the pre GST price? |
2008-12-05 |
|
From Chris:
I've been looking at a few answers to the question of before and after GST price calculation.
the suggestion have been :: multiply the pre GST price by 1.10 to get the
price and reverse to get a pre GST price.
But how do you calculate the pre GST price from an existing retail price?
For example if you take an item that is $150.00 and multiply it by 0.10
you get $15.00 as the GST add on. Apparently giving you $135.00 as the
pre GST price. However if you then multiply $135.00 by 1.10 you get the
$148.50 as the total.
So the question is how does one calculate the real pre GST price from
an existing retail price?
Regards,
Chris

From bruce:
Hi, i seem confused on this topic:
If i need to add say 10% GST to a cost then i would times it by 1.1.
If i need to reduce the cost by 10% then i need to divide it by 1.1. that is all well and good.
What if i need to add 12%, 18% or 20% what is the formula then?

The question was asked before but it was based on a G.S.T of 7% and I am now interested in the answer for 5% G.S.T.
It usually comes up when I husband bring homes a gas bill that doesn't break down the gst and pst, but rather just gives him the total cost I have to know how much GST he paid. If it is Diesel the PST isn't included but if it is regular gas he pays both. PST is 7%.
