Tip From Net Price Calculator

Calculate Tip From Net Price

Restaurant bills often list a pre-tax subtotal. Whether you tip on the net price or on the amount including tax changes the final total. This calculator handles both conventions.

Tip and Total Bill Formulas

$$\text{tax} = \text{net price} \times \frac{\text{tax \%}}{100}$$ $$\text{tip} = \text{tip base} \times \frac{\text{tip \%}}{100}$$ $$\text{total bill} = \text{net price} + \text{tax} + \text{tip}$$

Tip base is either the net price alone or net price plus tax, depending on your selection. Example: $50 net, 8% tax, and 18% tip on subtotal gives $4 tax, $9.72 tip, and $63.72 total.
