A shopkeeper announces a discount of 10% on a washing machine set. The marked price of washing machine is 12000.how much will a customer have to pay for buying the washing machine set if the rate of sales tax is 8%? (i) The VAT paid by the shopkeeper (ii) Total amount that the consumer pays for the washing machine.

Answer»

Given Discount = 10%, m. p = Rs.12,000, S.T = 8% 

Amount paid = S.P =? 

Discount of 10% on mp = 10% of Rs.12,000 

New m.p=12,000 – 1,200 = Rs.10,800 

\(=\frac{10}{100}\times 12,000 = 71,200\)

∴ Total amount to be paid = 10,800+8% of 10,800 

\(= 10,800 + \frac{8}{100}\times 10,800 \)

= 10,800 + 864 = Rs.11,664
