    Multiply the start price ($31.50) by the tax rate (.09) to get how much tax will be added to the start price.

    31.50 x. 09 = 2.835 or about 2.84

    Tax = $2.84

    New total = $34.34

    Multiply the new total ($34.34) by the planned tip (.18) to get how much you will tip in addition to the new total.

    34.34 x. 18 = 6.1812 or about 6.18

    Tip = $6.18

    Final total = $40.52
