Frequently Asked Questions

How do I calculate a discount?

To calculate a discount: (1) Multiply the original price by the discount percentage divided by 100 to get the discount amount, (2) Subtract the discount amount from the original price to get the final price. For example, with a $100 item and 20% discount: Discount = $100 × 20% = $20, Final Price = $100 - $20 = $80.

What's the difference between discount and markup?

A discount reduces the price (e.g., 20% off means you pay 80% of original price), while a markup increases the price (e.g., 20% markup means the price is 120% of cost). Discounts are used to reduce prices for customers, while markups are used to set prices above cost for profit.

Can discounts be combined?

Whether discounts can be combined depends on the retailer's policy. Some retailers allow combining discounts (like a store-wide sale plus a coupon), while others don't. When discounts are combined, they're typically applied sequentially (not added together). Use our Double Discount Calculator to calculate combined discounts.

How do I find the discount percentage from prices?

To find the discount percentage from original and final prices: Discount% = ((Original Price - Final Price) / Original Price) × 100. For example, if original price is $100 and final price is $80: Discount% = (($100 - $80) / $100) × 100 = 20%.
