What's the difference between 'net' and 'gross' price here?
Net is the pre-tax price; gross is the price after tax is added. Choose whichever one you already know, and the calculator works out the other two figures.
Can I use this to find the tax rate from a receipt?
Not directly — it solves for price and tax amount given a rate. If you know both the net and gross price and need the rate, divide the tax amount by the net price and multiply by 100.
