How to calculate GST in Jordan

Adding GST to a net price

GST = net × 16 / 100
gross = net × 1.16

Removing GST from a gross price

net = gross / 1.16
GST = gross − net

Do not subtract 16% from the total to find the net price — divide by 1.16 instead. Subtracting the percentage removes too much, because GST is only 13.79% of the gross amount.
