Calculation notes
How the result is calculated
Discount = eligible amount × percentage, rounded to two decimals. Discounted payment = eligible amount − discount. Deadline = issue date + window in calendar days, without weekend shifting. This checks the offer, not whether a discount is profitable or how local tax rules treat it.
Formulas and examples reviewed October 2, 2026. Illustrative figures; no tax or contractual determination.
Some charges excluded
A USD 1,000 service charge and USD 200 reimbursed expense total USD 1,200. If only the service qualifies for 3%, enter USD 1,000: discount USD 30. Add the unchanged USD 200 separately, giving USD 1,170 before any required tax adjustment.
Questions about this calculation
Is this the invoice due date?
No. A discount deadline can be earlier than the normal due date. State both dates clearly and explain which amount is payable after the discount expires.
Should I subtract the discount from tax?
The calculator does not determine tax treatment. Confirm the applicable treatment and any credit-note requirements before changing a tax invoice.
