Discount Calculator

The discounted price is found by multiplying the original price by the discount rate and subtracting from the original price. Formula: Discounted Price = Original Price x (1 - Discount Rate / 100). For example, with a 20% discount on a $1,000 product, the discounted price is $800.

The discount rate is a percentage value showing how much is deducted from the price. The savings amount indicates how much you save in dollar terms. For example, with a 30% discount on a $500 product, your savings amount is $150.

In sequential (cascading) discounts, each discount is applied to the previous discounted price. For example, if a $1,000 product first gets a 20% discount and then a 10% discount: after the first discount it is $800, after the second discount it is $720. This equals a total 28% discount, not 30%.
