Method and assumptions

Order: increase, successive discounts, remove included VAT, add net shipping, VAT and withholding.

Shipping charged at cost, with the same VAT and withholding as goods. No country-specific tax rules.

Profit excludes VAT and withholding. Unit cost excludes VAT; withholding applies to the base including shipping.

Worked example and interpretation

For a net price of 100 at an example rate of 21%, tax is 21 and the total is 121. To extract that tax from 121, divide by 1.21 to recover 100. Subtracting 21% from 121 would incorrectly give 95.59.

What to check

21% is an example, not a determination of the legal rate. Check country, product and the tax base for shipping or withholding. Changing the currency symbol does not convert amounts or tax rules.
