When this tool is useful

Practical preliminary checks

  • Checking supplier or subcontractor amounts before and after GST
  • Reviewing project cost schedules that mix inclusive and exclusive amounts
  • Checking progress-claim or variation arithmetic
  • Converting a GST-inclusive total to the underlying ex-GST amount

How it works

To add GST, the ex-GST amount is multiplied by 1.10. To remove GST from an inclusive amount, the total is divided by 1.10. The GST component is the difference between the inclusive and exclusive amounts.

Important estimating note

This calculator only performs arithmetic using the standard 10% GST rate. It is not tax advice and does not determine whether a particular supply, transaction or entity is subject to GST.
