The VAT maths
- Adding VAT: £500,000 × 1.2 = £600,000.00.
- Removing VAT: £500,000 ÷ 1.2 = £416,666.67. The VAT inside a VAT-inclusive price is one sixth of it, £83,333.33, not 20%.
- Taking 20% off £500,000 would give £400,000.00, which is £16,666.67 too low.
- VAT-registered businesses can usually reclaim the VAT they pay on business costs, so the net figure is their real cost.
