About the Discount Calculator

Discount Calculator answers the question a shop sign leaves open: what will this actually cost. Enter the original price and the discount percentage and you get the amount saved and the price you will pay, both rounded to two decimal places.

Sales tax can be added on top, which matters in places where displayed prices exclude tax. The breakdown shows each stage separately: original price, discount applied, subtotal, tax added, and final total. Seeing the stages makes it obvious whether a quoted total already includes tax or not.

A second mode works the other way round. If you know the original and the sale price but not the percentage, enter both and the tool tells you what discount that represents. It is a quick way to check whether an advertised saving is as large as it sounds.

Who uses this tool

The discount calculator is used by writers, developers, students, marketers and anyone else who needs the job done once without installing software. Common cases include:

  • Working out the saving on a bulk order
  • Confirming whether an advertised discount matches the shelf price

Frequently asked questions

Is tax applied before or after the discount?

After, which is the normal rule in most places: you are taxed on what you actually pay, not on the pre-discount price. The breakdown shows the order so you can check it against your local practice.

How do I combine two discounts?

Apply them one after another rather than adding the percentages. Thirty percent off followed by twenty percent off is a 44 percent total reduction, not 50 percent, because the second discount applies to the already reduced price.

What does the reverse mode do?

It takes the original and the sale price and tells you the discount percentage between them. Useful when a sign shows two prices but no percentage, or when you want to verify a claimed saving.

Can I calculate a markup instead of a discount?

Use the Percentage Calculator for that. This tool is built around reductions, where the percentage is subtracted from the original price.

Does the result include shipping?

No. Only the item price, the discount and the optional tax are included. Add delivery charges separately, as they are usually not discounted.

Which currency does it use?

None in particular. The calculator works with plain numbers, so the result is correct in whatever currency you are thinking in.
