How discounts work

A discount reduces the original price by a percentage. The higher the percentage, the more money you save.

Final price = Original price − Discount amount

How to calculate savings

Multiply the original price by the discount percentage and divide by 100.

Savings = Price × Discount ÷ 100

VAT after discount

VAT or sales tax is usually applied after the discount has been subtracted from the original price.

Tax = Discounted price × VAT %

Common discount mistakes

❌

Adding discounts together incorrectly

A 50% discount followed by 20% off is not a total 70% discount. The second discount applies to the reduced price.

❌

Ignoring VAT or tax

The advertised sale price may not include VAT or sales tax, depending on your country or store.

❌

Comparing percentages only

A higher percentage discount does not always mean a better deal. The original price matters too.
