A worked example
Starting from a net amount of MVR 1,234.00 at 8%: GST (General Sector) comes to MVR 98.72 and the gross amount to MVR 1,332.72.
Starting from the gross amount of MVR 1,332.72 at 8%: the net amount is MVR 1,234.00 and the GST (General Sector) is MVR 98.72.
How the result is worked out
From a net amount: tax = net × rate, rounded half up to the smallest unit of the currency (MVR: 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.
