totalPris

Totalpris is the final amount a buyer pays for a product or service, incorporating the base price and all mandatory charges. In practice, totalpris represents the price a consumer sees at checkout and is intended to reflect what will be paid at the point of sale, including taxes, fees, and any delivery charges.

Components and calculation

Totalpris typically includes the base price, value-added tax (VAT) or sales tax, import duties where applicable, shipping or delivery charges, insurance, installation or handling fees, and any mandatory fees. Discounts, coupons, or loyalty credits can reduce the total, while optional add-ons may increase it. Some regions distinguish between the net price (nettopris) and the total price; the net price excludes taxes and charges, while the totalpris includes them.

Usage and consumer considerations

Displaying a clear totalpris helps consumers compare offers and budget accurately. When evaluating prices, it is important to compare totalpris with the same inclusions (for example, including or excluding shipping). Regulations in many jurisdictions require that the total price, including taxes and mandatory charges, be stated prominently before completion of a purchase.

Regional context

The term totalpris is common in Nordic languages and similar to concepts used in other countries under different names (for example, gross price or final price). While practices vary, the principle remains: the totalpris should reflect all obligatory costs that the purchaser must pay, providing a transparent basis for price comparisons and budgeting.

Example

Base price: 1000; VAT: 250; Shipping: 50; Totalpris: 1300.
