Question

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

Answer:

1836 = GST

Step-by-step explanation:

Dealer 20% discount = 6000 * 20 / 100 = 1200

Dealer price after 20% discount = 6000 - 1200 = 4800

Dealer payed gst = 4800 * 18 / 100 = 864

Buyers 10% discount = 6000 * 10 / 100 = 600

Buyer price after 10% discount = 6000 - 600 = 5400

Buyer payed gst = 5400 * 18 / 100 = 972

Total GST payed by the dealer in two stages

= 864 + 972 = 1836
