Answer key: VAT worksheet

  1. 1. Net price (before VAT): $208.33

    1. The full price is the price before tax times (1 + rate). So divide by (1 + rate) to get back the price before tax

      $250.00(1+0.2)=$208.33
    2. The VAT is what's left: the full price minus the price before tax

      $250.00−$208.33=$41.67
    3. Check with a shortcut: the VAT is rate ÷ (100 + rate) of the full price

      $250.00×20100+20=$41.67
  2. 2. Net price (before VAT): $189.66

    1. The full price is the price before tax times (1 + rate). So divide by (1 + rate) to get back the price before tax

      $220.00(1+0.16)=$189.66
    2. The VAT is what's left: the full price minus the price before tax

      $220.00−$189.66=$30.34
    3. Check with a shortcut: the VAT is rate ÷ (100 + rate) of the full price

      $220.00×16100+16=$30.34
  3. 3. Gross price (including VAT): $280.60

    1. Find the VAT: the price before tax times the VAT rate

      $230.00×22%=$50.60
    2. Add the VAT to the price before tax to get the full price

      $230.00+$50.60=$280.60
  4. 4. Gross price (including VAT): $372.00

    1. Find the VAT: the price before tax times the VAT rate

      $300.00×24%=$72.00
    2. Add the VAT to the price before tax to get the full price

      $300.00+$72.00=$372.00
  5. 5. Gross price (including VAT): $259.60

    1. Find the VAT: the price before tax times the VAT rate

      $220.00×18%=$39.60
    2. Add the VAT to the price before tax to get the full price

      $220.00+$39.60=$259.60
  6. 6. Gross price (including VAT): $248.00

    1. Find the VAT: the price before tax times the VAT rate

      $200.00×24%=$48.00
    2. Add the VAT to the price before tax to get the full price

      $200.00+$48.00=$248.00
  7. 7. Gross price (including VAT): $451.50

    1. Find the VAT: the price before tax times the VAT rate

      $350.00×29%=$101.50
    2. Add the VAT to the price before tax to get the full price

      $350.00+$101.50=$451.50
  8. 8. Gross price (including VAT): $366.00

    1. Find the VAT: the price before tax times the VAT rate

      $300.00×22%=$66.00
    2. Add the VAT to the price before tax to get the full price

      $300.00+$66.00=$366.00
  9. 9. Net price (before VAT): $206.90

    1. The full price is the price before tax times (1 + rate). So divide by (1 + rate) to get back the price before tax

      $240.00(1+0.16)=$206.90
    2. The VAT is what's left: the full price minus the price before tax

      $240.00−$206.90=$33.10
    3. Check with a shortcut: the VAT is rate ÷ (100 + rate) of the full price

      $240.00×16100+16=$33.10
  10. 10. Net price (before VAT): $217.39

    1. The full price is the price before tax times (1 + rate). So divide by (1 + rate) to get back the price before tax

      $250.00−$217.39=$32.61
    3. Check with a shortcut: the VAT is rate ÷ (100 + rate) of the full price

      $250.00×15100+15=$32.61
