The Full Featured Tip Calculator is a calculator to help you figure out how much to tip while at a restaurant or bar. There are two modes, one for splitting the bill evenly between all diners and one for splitting the bill exactly according to how much each person bought.

Split Evenly:

In this mode just enter the total dollar amount of the bill, the dollar amount of tax, the tip percent and how many times to split it. For bill and taxes you can enter multiple amounts separated with a + sign which will get added together for a total. So if a meal was bought for 11.50, a drink for 2.50 and an appetizer for 4.95, enter 11.50+2.50+4.95. This saves you from having to do the addition in your head or with a separate calculator.

The tip is calculated from the pretax amount of the bill. Every time you close the keyboard or move to a different text field, the four total fields at the bottom are automatically calculated. This way they are always up to date when new information is entered.

Split Exactly:

This mode can be used to split the bill up exactly according to the price of each person's meal. The total amount of tax which is taxed on all items should be entered into the first text field at the top. The second tax text field is used to enter the liquor tax which is only taxed on liquor. If your jurisdiction does not have a liquor tax then just leave this blank. The tax for each diner is calculated on a proportional basis of the total bill.

To add a diner just click the add button under the Diners heading. You can also enter a name for the diner before you press add to give the diner a name. The remove button removes the last diner that was entered. Each user can then enter the price of the items they bought. This items field and liquor field can both accept + signs just like in the previous mode. This is then totaled and used to calculate the tip, the amount of total tax and the total amount the diner owes.

To add an item that was shared amongst multiple diners click the add shared item button. Then enter the amount of the item or items, the diners who shared it using their number separated by a comma, and whether or not it was liquor.

When all the information is filled out, click the calculate button at the bottom of the page. This will do the calculations and display them on the results page.
