Discount Calculator

Calculate sale price, savings, and final cost after discounts. Supports multiple discount stacking.

Formula:
Sale Price = Original × (1 − Discount1%) × (1 − Discount2%)
Final = Sale Price × (1 + Tax%)

How Stacked Discounts Work

When stores offer "extra 20% off sale prices," the discounts are applied sequentially, not added together. A 25% off + extra 20% off is NOT 45% off — it's 25% off first, then 20% off the reduced price, resulting in a 40% total discount.
