compound tax in php?

[techker]

hey guys can i get some help in putting this in php ?

 

i need to calculate taxes but in quebec...so 2 taxes 

 

exapl

SUBTOTAL 3.99
TAX1: 18%
TAX2: 15%

Calculating when Compound tax is enabled:

Amount with Compound tax = (SUBTOTAL + TAX1) + TAX2

in digits:

(SUBTOTAL + TAX1) = 3.99 + 18% = 3.99 + 3.99 / 100 * 18 = 3.99 * 1.18 = 4.7082
(SUBTOTAL + TAX1) + TAX2 = 4.7082 + 15% = 4.7082 + 4.7082 / 100 * 15 = 4.7082 + 0.70623 = 4.7082 * 1.15 = 5.41443
Amount with Compound tax = 5.41443

You already have the math worked out for applying the taxes (highlighted below)

 

 

(SUBTOTAL + TAX1) = 3.99 + 18% = 3.99 + 3.99 / 100 * 18 = 3.99 * 1.18 = 4.7082
(SUBTOTAL + TAX1) + TAX2 = 4.7082 + 15% = 4.7082 + 4.7082 / 100 * 15 = 4.7082 + 0.70623 = 4.7082 * 1.15 = 5.41443

 

The number in purple is the subtotal you're applying tax to. The green number is the subtotal with 1st tax. The number in blue will be sales price (subtotal, 1st and 2nd taxes added together). 

 

So what is the problem. Are you unsure how covert it to PHP? All that is needed is for you to change the purple and green numbers to PHP variables.

As you've shown, compound tax is simply applying a tax to an already-taxed number. It can be simplified to just

3.99 * 1.18 * 1.15 = 5.41443

$price * $tax1 * $tax2

i got it going with this

 

$TAX1=5.00;$TAX2 =9.974;///this is suppose to be 9.975 but i get a penny more..so i doped it a penny and im ok..
 $price1 = ($price * $TAX1/100) ;$price2 = ($price * $TAX2/100) ;$price3 =  $price + $price1 + $price2; $total1= round($price1, 2);$total2= round($price2, 2);$total= round($price3, 2);
