How to use the Alberta GST calculator?
What is GST and how to calculate it manually?
The GST is a federal value-added tax administered by the Government of Canada. It applies to the sale of most goods and services. The current GST rate in Alberta is 5%.
The general formula for calculating GST is:
GST Amount = Price before taxes ✕ (GST rate ÷ 100)
For example, we have an invoice showing a total of $2000 (including GST) and we want to manually calculate the price after GST:
GST amount = $2000 ✕ (5 ÷ 100)
GST Amount = $100
Therefore, the price after taxes is equal to:
Price after tax = GST + Price before tax
Price after taxes = $100 + $2000 = $2100
