Help!!!!!!

Eavening all,

Is there some one with a mathmatical brain that can help me.

I've lost an invoice from march, but have the the VAT figure from my return.

How do I work out the sale total befor vat for that figure.

Example
Say I have a VAT amount of 1500, what would the before tax price be (VAT being 13.5%

If you can help, can you post the mathmatical formular for working out this figure.
Thanks in advance,

Pip

1500/13.5*100=11111.11

Or in English: 1500 is 13.5% of the pre tax sale price. Therefore 1500/13.5 is 1% of the pre tax price. And 1500/13.5*100 is the total pre tax sale price. Total price inc vat is 11111.11+1500=12611.11

Newaglish

I think there may be a typo in the total price, should read €12,611.11.

Just in case (s)he goes and makes any important decisions on the figures!

Or in English: 1500 is 13.5% of the pre tax sale price. Therefore 1500/13.5 is 1% of the pre tax price. And (1500/13.5)*100 is the total pre tax sale price. Total price inc vat is 11111.11+1500=12611.11
