You can use appendChild method :

var newDiv = document.createElement('div');

newDiv.innerHTML = "Price:<strong>£12.30 (Ex VAT)</strong>";

document.getElementById('parentDiv').appendChild(newDiv);

Here is the JQuery equvalent of the code above :

var newDiv = $("<div>Price:<strong>£12.30 (Ex VAT)</strong></div>");
$('#parentElement').append(newDiv);

Or :

$("<div>Price:<strong>£12.30 (Ex VAT)</strong></div>").appendTo("#parentElement");
