A worked example

Starting from a net amount of GHS 1,234.00 at 20%: VAT + NHIL + GETFund comes to GHS 246.80 and the gross amount to GHS 1,480.80.

Starting from the gross amount of GHS 1,480.80 at 20%: the net amount is GHS 1,234.00 and the VAT + NHIL + GETFund is GHS 246.80.

How the result is worked out

From a net amount: tax = net × rate, rounded half up to the smallest unit of the currency (GHS: 2 decimal places). From a gross amount: tax = gross × rate ÷ (100% + rate) and net = gross − tax, so net and tax always add up to the gross amount.

A withholding or other deduction is worked out on the net amount, or on the amount with tax if you choose that, and taken from the gross amount to give the amount payable. You type its rate yourself; nothing is filled in.
