How Reverse Tax Works

To extract sales tax from a gross receipt, you don't simply multiply the total by the tax rate. Instead, divide the gross amount by 1 + (Rate / 100). For a 10% rate on $110: $110 ÷ 1.10 = $100 net base.

Expense Claims & Auditing

Essential for freelancers and small businesses preparing quarterly BAS, GST, or VAT returns where vendor invoices display only the gross card total.
