Answer 1

AnswEr :

$\bold{Given}\begin{cases}\sf{Marked \:Price (MP) = Rs.\:4800}\\ \sf{Discount = 10\%}\\ \sf{Value \:Added \:Tax (VAT) = 8\%}\\ \sf{Selling \:Price (SP) = ?}\end{cases}$

• S O M E ⠀I N F O R M A T I O N S :

1) Whatever amount will be paid by Customer i.e. Cost Price ( CP ) for Customer, whereas i.e. Selling Price ( SP ) for Shopkeeper.

2) Discount is Subtracted from the Price.

3) VAT is added to the Price.

$\rule{300}{1}$

• Let's Head to the Question Now :

$\longrightarrow \tt SP = MP \times (100 - Discount)\%\times(100 + VAT)\% \\ \\\longrightarrow \tt SP = MP \times (100 - 10)\%\times(100 + 8)\% \\ \\\longrightarrow \tt SP = MP \times 90\%\times108\% \\ \\\longrightarrow \tt SP =48\cancel{00} \times\dfrac{9\cancel0}{10\cancel0} \times\dfrac{108}{\cancel{100}} \\ \\\longrightarrow \tt SP = \dfrac{48 \times9 \times108}{10}\\ \\\longrightarrow \tt SP = \dfrac{46656}{10} \\ \\\longrightarrow \large \boxed{\tt SP =Rs.\:4665.60}$

⠀

∴ Customer will pay Rs. 4665.60 for that.

$\rule{300}{2}$

$\boxed{\begin{minipage}{7 cm}\underline{\text{Some Important Formulae Related to it :}}\\ \\ SP=CP\times(100+Profit)\%\\ \\SP=CP\times(100-Loss)\%\\ \\Profit\%=\dfrac{Profit}{CP}\times100 \\ \\Loss\%=\dfrac{Loss}{CP}\times100 \end{minipage}}$

Answer 2

Answer:

MP = Rs4800, Discount = 10% = Rs 480

Vat = 8% of 4320 = Rs 345.6

So selling price = Rs 345.6 + Rs 4320

= 4665.6
