How to use it

A quick estimate, without the spreadsheet.

Inputs and units

Enter an amount in GBP, select the applicable 20%, 5% or 0% VAT rate, then choose whether VAT is included.

Formula

Adding VAT multiplies the net price by 1 + rate. Removing VAT divides the gross amount by 1 + rate; VAT is the difference.

Worked example

£120 including 20% VAT contains £100 net and £20 VAT.

Assumptions and limitations

This calculates a selected rate; it does not determine which products qualify or whether you must register. Zero-rated and exempt supplies have different legal treatment despite both producing no VAT here.
