Formula Explained
The discount calculator uses this simple formula to calculate the final price:
Final Price = Original Price × (1 - Discount Percentage)
Discount Amount = Original Price × Discount Percentage
For example, if an item costs ₱1,000 and you want to apply a 20% discount:
- Discount Amount = ₱1,000 × 0.20 = ₱200
- Final Price = ₱1,000 × (1 - 0.20) = ₱800
This formula works for any currency, including Philippine pesos.
Worked Examples
Example 1: 15% Discount on ₱500
Original Price: ₱500
Discount Percentage: 15%
Discount Amount: ₱500 × 0.15 = ₱75
Final Price: ₱500 - ₱75 = ₱425
Example 2: 30% Discount on ₱2,000
Original Price: ₱2,000
Discount Percentage: 30%
Discount Amount: ₱2,000 × 0.30 = ₱600
Final Price: ₱2,000 - ₱600 = ₱1,400
Remember: The discount percentage is always applied to the original price, not the discounted price. This is called a simple discount.
