Everyone loves a good sale, but calculating the final price after a discountโand especially after sales taxโcan sometimes be tricky. A discount calculator is a shopper's best friend, taking the guesswork out of sales and helping you stick to your budget. This guide will not only show you how to use our powerful sale price calculator but also explain the simple math behind it, so you can be a smarter shopper.
Our tool features two main calculators and a currency selector to cover all your needs.
Before you begin, use the dropdown menu at the top to select your currency, such as Indian Rupee (โน) or US Dollar ($). All calculations will use the selected currency symbol.
This is the primary tool for figuring out what you'll actually pay for an item on sale.
Ever see a sale price and wonder what the item cost before the discount? This reverse calculator is for you.
Understanding the formulas our percent off calculator uses can empower you to do quick mental estimates while shopping.
There are two simple steps to finding the final price.
Savings = Original Price ร (Discount % / 100)
Sale Price = Original Price - Savings
A crucial step that many forget is sales tax. **Tax is always calculated on the discounted price, not the original price.**
Tax Amount = Sale Price ร (Tax % / 100)
Final Price = Sale Price + Tax Amount
To find the original price from a sale price, you need to determine what percentage of the original price you actually paid.
Original Price = Sale Price / (1 - (Discount % / 100))
If you paid โน750 for an item that was 25% off: `750 / (1 - (25 / 100)) = 750 / 0.75 = โน1000`.
Sometimes deals are more complicated. Here's how to tackle them:
A common mistake is to simply add the percentages together (40% + 20% = 60%). This is incorrect. The second discount is applied to the *already discounted price*.
To calculate 20% off a price, you can multiply the price by 0.20 to find the discount amount, then subtract that from the original price. An even faster way is to multiply the price by `(1 - 0.20)`, which is 0.80. So, for a โน500 item, `โน500 * 0.80 = โน400`.
In virtually all retail situations, the discount is applied first, and then sales tax is calculated on the lower, discounted price. This is beneficial for the consumer. Our calculator follows this correct order of operations.
Yes, this tool is 100% free to use, with no limits on the number of calculations you can perform.
