Gross To Net Formula

The following formula can be used to convert the gross amount to the net amount.

N = G - G × (T / 100)
  • Where N is the net
  • G is the gross
  • and T is the entered deduction percentage (20 means 20%)

For percentage deductions, multiply gross by the entered percentage divided by 100, then subtract that deduction. For a fixed deduction, subtract the entered amount directly. Percentage gross-up divides net by (1 − rate/100); fixed gross-up adds the deduction.
