How it works
What the calculator is doing
Enter the invoice subtotal and choose whether any discount should be applied as a percentage or flat amount.
The calculator subtracts the discount first, calculates tax on the discounted subtotal, and then adds any extra fee.
You get the final total along with a clean readout of the subtotal, tax amount, and discount amount used in the estimate.
Understanding your result
Showing each piece separately matters because the final invoice total can change a lot depending on whether a discount is applied before tax and whether extra fees are part of the final bill. The clearer those pieces are, the easier the estimate is to trust and explain.

FAQ
Common questions
In what order does this calculator apply the numbers?
It subtracts the discount first, calculates tax on the discounted subtotal, and adds the extra fee afterward.
Can I use either a discount percentage or discount amount?
Yes. The calculator supports both discount styles so you can model whichever version matches the invoice.
Is the extra fee taxed in this estimate?
No. To keep the estimate straightforward, the extra fee is added after tax rather than treated as a taxable amount.
