The VAT maths
- Adding VAT: £250 × 1.2 = £300.00.
- Removing VAT: £250 ÷ 1.2 = £208.33. The VAT inside a VAT-inclusive price is one sixth of it, £41.67, not 20%.
- Taking 20% off £250 would give £200.00, which is £8.33 too low.
- VAT-registered businesses can usually reclaim the VAT they pay on business costs, so the net figure is their real cost.
