Sale Price for the iPhone

Sale Price

Sale Price is a simple app for calculating the actual cost of a potential purchase.

Multiple percent off discounts sound good but then you have sales tax, so how much is that thing really going to cost? With Sale Price you know!

Got a limited budget, multiple choices and or many things to buy? Sale Price can save the real price of multiple items. Plus it keeps a running total.

Item Page

The Item page has four different modes:

• Simple Price
• Detail Price
• Simple Units
• Detail Units

The mode you are in is controlled by the buttons on the bottom of the page.

There are three buttons in the title bar of the Item Page:

• Item List - Takes you the the Item List page.
• New - Saves your current item, if you have enter a price, and creates a new item for the current mode.
• Settings - Takes you to the Default Settings page. Here you can change the default name, default sales tax and number of units. Current defaults are Thing, 9.250% and 1.

Calculation are made individually and rounded to the nearest cent. This can give you a slightly different answer then when you only round at the end of all calculations.

Simple Price

Simple Price mode is the most straight forward calculation. You enter a price and the app calculates the cost. If you haven't given the item a name it names it the default name plus a number. If there are percentage discounts you can enter them here. Total Cost is the price after discounts and sales tax.

Detail Price

Detail Price mode is the same as Simple Price except you can see all the interim calculations. It also contains a unit field and per unit calculations which are useful for comparisons and multiple items for a single price sales.

Simple Units

Simple Units mode is used for Unit purchase like meat or vegetables. If something cost $5.99 per pound you enter 5.99 in the Price/Unit field and the number of pounds in the Units field.

Detail Unit

Detail Units mode is the same as Simple Units except interim calculations are shown and the Sale Price per Unit and the Total Cost per Unit are shown.

Item List

The Item List page is a summary of the items you are interested in plus a running total.

There are four extra buttons on the Item List page:

• Info - The Info page provides contact and copyright information and links to other apps I have created.
• Help - The Help page provides basic instructions on how to use the app.
• New - Creates a new Item.
• Edit - Changes the mode of the Item List page to allow you to delete and reorder items.
