The VAT maths

  • Adding VAT: £30,000 × 1.2 = £36,000.00.
  • Removing VAT: £30,000 ÷ 1.2 = £25,000.00. The VAT inside a VAT-inclusive price is one sixth of it, £5,000.00, not 20%.
  • Taking 20% off £30,000 would give £24,000.00, which is £1,000.00 too low.
  • VAT-registered businesses can usually reclaim the VAT they pay on business costs, so the net figure is their real cost.
