How to add or remove VAT

  • Add VAT: price before VAT × 1.14 = price including VAT. For example, 250 becomes 285.
  • Remove VAT: price including VAT ÷ 1.14 = price before VAT. The difference is the VAT. For example, 570 including VAT is 500 before VAT and 70 VAT.
  • Do not take 14% off a gross price: 14% of 1,140 is 159.60, but the VAT inside it is 140.
