The VAT maths
- Adding VAT: £20,000 × 1.2 = £24,000.00.
- Removing VAT: £20,000 ÷ 1.2 = £16,666.67. The VAT inside a VAT-inclusive price is one sixth of it, £3,333.33, not 20%.
- Taking 20% off £20,000 would give £16,000.00, which is £666.67 too low.
- VAT-registered businesses can usually reclaim the VAT they pay on business costs, so the net figure is their real cost.
