The VAT maths
- Adding VAT: £1,000 × 1.2 = £1,200.00.
- Removing VAT: £1,000 ÷ 1.2 = £833.33. The VAT inside a VAT-inclusive price is one sixth of it, £166.67, not 20%.
- Taking 20% off £1,000 would give £800.00, which is £33.33 too low.
- VAT-registered businesses can usually reclaim the VAT they pay on business costs, so the net figure is their real cost.
