Frequently Asked Questions
How do I calculate the money off percentage?
To calculate the money off percentage, divide the savings amount by the original price and multiply by 100. For example, if you save $20 on a $100 item, the discount percentage is (20 ÷ 100) × 100 = 20%.
Can I use this calculator for sales tax?
This calculator does not account for sales tax. If you need to include sales tax in your calculations, you'll need to add the tax amount to the final price after applying the discount.
What if the discount is more than 100%?
A discount of more than 100% would result in a negative final price, which isn't practical. The calculator will show an error if you enter a discount percentage greater than 100%.
