VAT: 20%

Price including VAT: 35 €

Price excluding VAT: 29.17 €

Calculating incl. VAT using {{ price | times: 1.2 | money }}

  • for 1 item: 35 € ==> correct
  • for 2 items: 70.01 € ==> incorrect

70.01 is actually correct since 29.17 * 1.2 is 35.004. But this of course leads to confused customers. I noticed it's the same when Shopify calculates the grand total during checkout.

Any ideas? Since we can't change the checkout page anyway, I guess we have to change the price?

To clarify: We're trying to show prices including VAT on product page, collection, cart etc. But appearentely the problem occurs during Shopify's checkout as well.
