Hi,
Just wondering how I can display the total price inclusive of tax.
In other words, when I add another product, the price I enter should be the price inclusive of 10%GST.
I don't want the tax to be added when the user clicks "add to cart".
I think in Australia it's a prerequisite for retailers to display the price inclusive of GST. (not sure on that one).
So the price that they first see is the price they should pay.
When the customer checks out, they should then see the percentage of tax paid.
Is there a function/set up that will allow me to do that?
Thank you.

Does anyone have any updates on this?
In Australia, it is unacceptable to list a product for sale at $20, and then add $2 tax (ie $22 total) once the customer gets to the checkout and chooses Australia as the destination.
The products must be listed with their prices including GST (if applicable).
Given that some products could be GST free (eg raw coffee products), and some could attract GST, during checkout I think it should list the price and tax amount for each product.
In Dashboard -> Products -> Settings -> Presentation there is a Display "+tax" option (the add_plustax field). But searching through the code it doesn't actually seem to do anything.
Does anyone have any ideas?
Thanks in advance.

Here's another Australia vote for a "must fix". As mentioned by previous commenters, it is a breach of Australian law not to disclose the tax element with the product.
Any news when this will be addressed?
It's too late for me to choose another cart system (the site has been configured and installed), not to mention the fact that Instinct is our #1 Cart-of-choice. But this is a MAJOR issue for more ALL Australian, UK and New Zealand (???) users.Posted 7 months ago # -
I don't know your laws exactly, but if you need to add tax by item, why not just build it into the price of the item? You could at least do that as a temporary work around while you wait for a real solution

Just in case anyone is still monitoring this post, here is what I did:
Settings: Display "+ Postage & Tax": to NO
Under the Product settings, add the custom tax ONLY (in my case 12%)
Then it showed up right away added to my total before checkout... hopefully that helps someone out!

If somebody is still interested, some time ago I wrote quick fix to display prices with tax... You may find it here:
http://blog.meloniq.net/2009/12/08/hack-plugin-wp-e-commerce-wyswietlanie-ceny-z-vat/If there will be bigger interesting in this post I may translate it to english;)
Else if You are looking for better and easier solution I got it as well, it use tax rate from database (main country tax, or if exist product custom tax) - mean script dont calculate "hard" prices by 1.19 in code/template, just getting it from DB, so You may set for example 5 products with diffrent taxes and it will show price correctly (all other solutions count correctly just per 1 tax rate;)) Soon hack will be published, but You may mail me now;)
