Computes what a developer actually receives from an App Store sale: first removes the storefront's VAT/GST already baked into the customer-facing sticker price, then applies Apple's commission (standard 30%, Small Business Program 15%, or the post-year-one subscription 15%) to that tax-exclusive remainder -- NOT to the sticker price itself, which is the mistake most naive calculators make. Returns a full price breakdown, the effective share of the sticker Apple actually keeps, a side-by-side comparison across all three commission rates (including per-1,000-sales figures), a naive-calculator sanity check showing how far off a 'just take the commission off the top' estimate would be, and warnings when the selected storefront's real tax rate varies by province, state or category (India, Canada, Brazil) rather than being a single fixed number.
Input schema
| Property | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| price | number | yes | The customer-facing sticker price for this storefront (already tax-inclusive everywhere except the US). |
| countryCode | string | no | Two-letter App Store storefront code (e.g. us, gb, de, jp, in). Selects the default tax rate and currency symbol. Defaults to gb, matching the tool page. |
| taxRatePercent | number | no | Override the storefront's default tax rate baked into the price, as a percent (e.g. 20 for 20% VAT). Defaults to the selected countryCode's standard rate (0 for the US). Some storefronts' real rates vary by province, state or category -- see the warnings array. |
| commissionScenario | string | no | Which Apple commission rate applies to the tax-exclusive remainder: 'standard30' (30%, the default for most apps), 'small15' (15%, Apple's Small Business Program for developers under the program's proceeds threshold), or 'yearTwo15' (15%, the reduced rate a subscription bills at after a subscriber has accumulated one year of paid, unlapsed service). All three are always returned side by side in the comparison array regardless of which is selected here. |
