Find the final price after a percentage discount and see exactly how much you save. Add a second discount to calculate stacked offers such as "extra 10% off sale prices", and include sales tax to see the real checkout price.

How to use the Discount Calculator

  1. Enter the original price.
  2. Enter the discount percentage (e.g. 25 for 25% off).
  3. Optionally add a second stacked discount and a sales tax rate.
  4. See the final price, the total you save and the effective overall discount.

Discount formula

Sale price = Original price × (1 − discount ÷ 100). For 30% off $80: 80 × 0.70 = $56, saving $24.

Stacked discounts are applied one after another, not added: 20% off then an extra 10% off equals 1 − (0.8 × 0.9) = 28% off overall, not 30%.

Frequently asked questions

How do I calculate 20% off?

Multiply the price by 0.8. For example, 20% off $50 is 50 × 0.8 = $40.

Are two discounts of 20% the same as 40% off?

No. Two successive 20% discounts equal 36% off (0.8 × 0.8 = 0.64).

Is tax applied before or after the discount?

In most places sales tax is charged on the discounted price, which is how this calculator works.
