How to calculate VAT in South Sudan

Adding VAT to a net price

VAT = net × 15 / 100
Gross = net × 1.15

Removing VAT from a gross price

Net = gross / 1.15
VAT = gross − net

A common mistake is to take 15% off the gross price. That gives the wrong figure: the VAT inside a gross price is only 13.04% of it.
