Question

9. The marked price of an article is * 6.000. A wholesaler sells it to a dealer at 20% discount. The
dealer further sells the article to a customer at a discount of 10% on the marked price. If the rate of
GST at each stage is 18%, find the amount of tax (under GST) paid by the dealer to the government.​

Answer 1

We have,

Initial marked price by manufacturer A is Rs. 6000

Then, B bought the T.V. at a discount of 20%.

Now, Cost price of B = 80% of 6000

= Rs. 4800

And, GST paid by B for purchase

= 18% of 4800

= Rs. 864

Again, B sells T.V. at discount of 10% of market Price

So, the Selling price for B

= 6000 – 10% of 6000

= Rs. 5400

And, GST charged by B on selling of T.V.

= 18% of 5400

= Rs. 972

Thus, GST paid by B to the government

= GST charged on selling price – GST paid against purchase price

= 972 – 864

= Rs. 108 .

Answer 2

Initial marked price by manufacturer A is Rs. 6000

B bought the T.V. at a discount of 20%.

Now, Cost price of B = 80% of 6000 = Rs. 4800

And, GST paid by B for purchase = 18% of 4800 = Rs. 864

Again, B sells T.V. at discount of 10% of market Price

So, the Selling price for B = 6000 – 10% of 6000 = Rs. 5400

And, GST charged by B on selling of T.V. = 18% of 5400

= Rs. 972

Thus, GST paid by B to the government

= GST charged on selling price – GST paid against purchase price

= 972 – 864

= Rs. 108.

hopefully its helped uhh dear :)
