If an item costs $110 including GST:
GST Amount = $110 / 11 = $10
GST Exclusive Price = $110 - $10 = $100
So, the original price before GST was $100 and the GST amount charged is $10.
What is GST and how does it work in Australia?
The goods and services tax is a broad based tax imposed on most goods and services in Australia. It currently stands at 10%. Some items do not attract GST and are classified as GST free sales.
You may need to register for GST once your business GST turnover reaches $75,000 or more, or $150,000 or more for non profit organisations

How often do you need to report and pay GST?
The Australian Taxation Office establishes deadlines for submitting GST Business Activity Statements based on the annual revenue of a business. Your reporting and payment cycle depends on your business turnover:
- Monthly – GST turnover of $20 million or more.
- Quarterly – GST turnover of less than $20 million.
- Annually – If you are voluntarily registered for GST with a turnover under $75,000 or $150,000 for non-profit organisations.
Small and medium businesses can rely on the following due dates for quarterly BAS lodgment and payments. Keeping track of your BAS lodgment obligations throughout the year can help ensure your GST reporting remains accurate and up to date.
| Quarter | Due date |
|---|---|
| July, August, & September | 28 October |
| October, November, & December | 28 February |
| January, February & March | 28 April |
| April, May & June | 28 July |
