    Default GST Calculation Error, I don't undertsnad why

    Hi All,

    I have the following:

    1 Product 26.35
    2 Product 63.75
    3 Product 63.75

    Shipping 00.00 (Free shipping after $ 150)
    Sub Total 153.85
    GST 13.99 This GST Calculated @ 10% Should be $ 15.38 it is $ 1.39 short
    Total 153.85

    All my GST calculations are a little short on the total, even ones inclusive of postage charges flat rate $ 11.95

    Another Example:

    1 Product 43.90
    Shipping 11.95
    Sub Total 43.90
    GST 5.08 This GST should be $ 5.58
    Total 55.85

    Any assistance in where to look fro the problem would be much appreciated.
    Regards
    Renz

    You are reading this wrong.

    The total (153.85) includes 13.99 GST.

    $139.86 preGST
    $ 13.99 GST
    $153.85 total

    Total 55.85
    39.90 + 3.99 GST = 43.89
    10.86 + 1.09 GST = 11.95

    Total GST = $5.08

    Thanks for clarifying Rod, geez some days! I guess the saying "I can't see the forest for the tree's" is sometimes correct, LOL
