The VAT maths

  • Adding VAT: £800 × 1.2 = £960.00.
  • Removing VAT: £800 ÷ 1.2 = £666.67. The VAT inside a VAT-inclusive price is one sixth of it, £133.33, not 20%.
  • Taking 20% off £800 would give £640.00, which is £26.67 too low.
  • VAT-registered businesses can usually reclaim the VAT they pay on business costs, so the net figure is their real cost.
