Sales Tax Calculator

Sales tax varies by location from 0% to over 10%. This calculator helps you quickly determine the exact tax amount and total price for any purchase, whether you are a consumer budgeting a purchase or a business pricing goods.

How to Use This Tool

  1. Enter the item price before tax.
  2. Enter the combined sales tax rate (state + local).
  3. Click Calculate to see the tax amount and total price.

The Formula

Sales Tax = Price x Tax Rate / 100. Total Price = Price + Sales Tax.

Why It Matters

You sell a $1,200 laptop in a state with 8.25% sales tax. The customer pays $1,299 — but if you bake the tax into a $1,300 advertised price, you pocket $1,200 after remitting $99.
