Can't display prices with tax,please help

Hi,

I need the price being displayed including tax, but no matter how I setup in “my store" page, the product price always shown before tax.

How can I do to fix it ?

Thanks

Re: Can't display prices with tax,please help

How do you have the Tax Rate setup and the Zone for it?

Have you turned on the Configuration ... My Store ...

Display Prices with Tax
Display prices with tax included (true) or add the tax at the end (false)

true
false

Re: Can't display prices with tax,please help

Yes I have the tax rate setup and the zone setup as well.
When I add a product it can calculate the tax automatically.
I also turned the display price with tax on.
But I can't find the one" add the tax at the end"

Thanks for your help

Re: Can't display prices with tax,please help

I create a 12.5% GST for New Zealand. Now I have figure out how to display the price with tax. But when I go to check out. The tax is not included in the total price. The total just contain sub total and shipping.
Stuck again...

Re: Can't display prices with tax,please help

How did you set up your New Zealand tax ?
What countries and zones did you associate with your New Zealand zone-definition ?
What address are you using during the checkout test you're doing ?

Re: Can't display prices with tax,please help

Country set to NZ. Created a new zone as NZ. And modified the original zone definition and associate country NZ and zone NZ.
Here is an example of output when checkout use a test accoun (NZ customer, purchased an phone $599 incl GST):

Your Total
Sub-Total: $599.00

Flat Rate (Best Way):$10.00

NZ GST 12.5%:$66.56

Total:$609.00

It seems the GST is wrong as well.

Re: Can't display prices with tax,please help

In Admin->Configuration->My Store, what are your settings for:

  • Tax Decimal Places
  • Display Prices with Tax
  • Display Prices with Tax in Admin
  • Basis of Product Tax
  • Basis of Shipping Tax
  • Sales Tax Display Status
  • Store Status

What currencies do you have defined? What are their exchange rates set to ?

I'm having difficulty making this happen on a fresh install. Can you list the steps you took to get to where you're at now? ... so I can use those steps to recreate your situation on a new store?

How is this wrong ?

Your tax-included price is $599.
The tax included in that price is $66.56

$599 + 10 = 609.00

So, the question then becomes: should your shipping also be taxed? If so, then you'll need to edit your shipping module settings and associate a tax class (ie: Taxable Goods) with it, instead of --None--.

Otherwise, I see nothing wrong with what you've got.
