What Is a Sales Tax Calculator?

A sales tax calculator calculates total price including tax, or determines net price prior to tax charges.

Frequently Asked Questions

How is sales tax calculated?

Sales Tax = Pre-Tax Price × (Tax Rate / 100). Total Price = Pre-Tax Price + Sales Tax.

How do I calculate price before sales tax?

To find pre-tax price from total price: Pre-Tax Price = Total Price / (1 + Tax Rate / 100).

Does sales tax vary by location?

Yes. Sales tax rates differ by state, county, and city, combining state-level and local municipal tax rates.

Are all items subject to sales tax?

No. Many jurisdictions exempt essential groceries, prescription drugs, and certain services from retail sales tax.
