How This Tool Works
Enter the original price and discount percentage. Add a second discount if you have a stacked coupon or clearance markdown.
Formula & Method
Price after first discount = original price × (1 − discount% ÷ 100). If a second discount is stacked, it's applied to that reduced price, not the original.
Example Calculation
A $80 item with 25% off, plus an extra 10% off at checkout, ends up costing $54 — a total savings of $26 (32.5% off the original price).
Frequently Asked Questions
How do stacked discounts work?+
Stacked discounts apply one after another, not added together. A 25% discount followed by 10% off equals 32.5% total savings, not 35%.
Why isn't 25% + 10% equal to 35% off?+
Because the second discount is calculated on the already-reduced price, not the original price, so the combined effect is always slightly less than simply adding the percentages.
Does this include sales tax?+
No, this calculates the discounted price only. Use our Sales Tax Calculator afterward if you need the final price including tax.
