The Reverse Tax Formula

When a price is Tax Inclusive, you cannot simply subtract the tax percentage from the total. You must use the reverse calculation formula to find the true base price:

Base Price =
Total Amount
1 + (Tax Rate / 100)

For your $1,000 amount, the exclusive calculation ensures the government's 13% share is accurately separated. At a 13% rate, every $100 of base price equals $13in tax, making the total $113.
