Net price * 1.175 = Final price (including VAT)

e.g. An item costing £100 wouldn't be £82.5 excluding VAT, it would be £85.11


With the current VAT rate of 20%:

Final price / 1.2 = Net price (excluding VAT)

Net price * 1.2 = Final price (including VAT)
quite right was rushing there should have been

C2 =SUM(E2/117.5)*100
D2 =SUM(E2/117.5)*17.5

was doing it that way to make it easier to understand but then my brain switched off lol ( was laughing at hot fuzz may have been the culprit ther lol )


was using the 17.5 because i think they said thats the value they wanted
