1. What is Business Tax?

Business tax is a levy imposed on the taxable profit of corporations and businesses. It is calculated by multiplying the taxable profit by the applicable tax rate, which varies by jurisdiction and business type.

2. How Does the Calculator Work?

The calculator uses the business tax formula:

Where:

• \( Taxable Profit \) — The net profit subject to taxation (currency)
• \( Tax Rate \) — The applicable tax rate as a percentage (%)

Explanation: The formula calculates the amount of tax owed by multiplying the taxable profit by the tax rate expressed as a decimal.

3. Importance of Business Tax Calculation

Details: Accurate business tax calculation is essential for financial planning, compliance with tax regulations, budgeting, and ensuring proper allocation of resources for tax payments.

4. Using the Calculator

Tips: Enter taxable profit in your local currency and the tax rate as a percentage. Both values must be valid (taxable profit ≥ 0, tax rate between 0-100%).
