if $1747.56 is including HST, what is that price without the HST?
For which province?
The HST tax varies from province to province.
To find the price without HST (Harmonized Sales Tax), you need to calculate the original price before the tax was added. HST is usually expressed as a percentage of the original price.
In order to calculate the price without HST, you need to know the HST rate. The HST rate varies depending on the region. For example, in Ontario, Canada, the HST rate is 13%. However, for the purposes of this explanation, let's assume the HST rate is 15%.
To find the price without HST, you can use the following formula:
Original price = Total price / (1 + HST rate)
Now let's substitute the provided information into the formula:
Original price = $1747.56 / (1 + 0.15)
Calculating this, we find:
Original price = $1747.56 / 1.15
Dividing these numbers, we find:
Original price ≈ $1519.17
Therefore, the price without HST is approximately $1519.17.
