Question

After alowing 20% discount on the marked price of computer,13%VAT was levied on it.If its price become Rs 36160 what amount was levied in the VAT​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the MP of the cycle.

MP after discount = x —(10% of x) = 9x/10

Adding 13% VAT, SP = Rs.10170

9x/10+13% of 9x/10 = 10170

9x/10+13/100*9x/10 = 10170

9x/10+117x/1000 = 10170

(900x+117x)/1000 = 10170

1017x = 10170 * 1000

x = 10170 * 1000/1017 = 10000

VAT levied = 13% of 9*10000/10

= 13/100 * 9 *1000 =Rs.1170
