Find the VAT price and net price in Canada (GST % is 5) for an amount of 25000 $
Solution :
GST % = 5
Amount = 25000
Step 1 :
GST Price = (25000 * 5 ) / 100
= 1250 $
Step 2 :
Net Price = 25000 + 1250
= 26250 $
Hence the VAT Price is 1250 $ and Net Price is 26250 $
Solution :
GST % = 5
Amount = 25000
Step 1 :
GST Price = 25000 - (25000 * ( 100 / (100 + 5)))
= 25000 - (25000 * 0.95)
= 25000 - 23809.52
= 25000 - 23809.52
GST Price = 1190.48 $
Step 2 :
Net Price = 25000 - 1190.48
= 23809.52 $
Hence the VAT Price is 1190.48 $ and Net Price is 23809.52 $
