Tax on cars and motorcycles in Denmark

I have made a small program which can calculate the taxes on new cars and motorcycles in Denmark. If you wants to read more about the danish vehicle taxes, look here (Its in danish)

1999 DKafgift1999.zip
2000 DKafgift2000.zip
2001 DKafgift2001.zip
It was the first thing that I made with Borland's C++ Builder. I made it entirely for my own use, but others have shown interest in it - so here it is. The user-interface is in danish, but here is a short explanation.

Pris uden moms The raw price of the vehicle but including the sellers profit of at least 8,5% in 2000 (was 7,5% in 1999).
Pris med moms The raw price incl. 25% VAT.
MC Motorcycle.
Bil Car.
105% afgift 105% tax on the value incl. VAT between the limits shown in the upper right corner.
180% afgift 180% tax on the value incl. VAT over the limit shown in the upper right corner.
Afgift i alt Total tax.
Pris med afgift On the road price.
Forskel i afgift Difference in tax of a car and motorcycle with the same value.
Memo Area Cars can get a discount up to 8120kr for ABS, airbags and a few small items as high placed stoplight.

Remember that you have to enter the price in danish kroner.

Please note that yes you pay the 180% tax on both the sellers profit and VAT. Here is an exa,påle based on year 2000 taxes. So if we take a bike with a raw price from the importer at 30000 kr (~4000$). The seller must have a profit of 8,5% = 2550 kr (~350$). Then you add VAT and the high tax 2550*1,25*1,80 = 5738 kr (~780$) !!! Notice that you have to pay more than twice the real profit !!!. The on the road price of this example will be 97740 kr (~13300$). Yes that is _right_ The OTR price is more than 3 times the price of the bike from the importer !!!
