Solution

S.P. of an article for a manufacturer = ₹22000 including VAT
C.P. for the distributor = ₹22000
Rate of VAT = 10%
S.P. for the distributor of ₹22000 excluding VAT
S.P. for the consumer
= ₹25000 + Tax(VAT)
= ₹25000 + 10% of ₹25000
= ₹25000 + ₹2500
= ₹27500
(i) Sale price for the manufacturer

= `₹22000 xx (100)/(100 + 10)`

= `₹22000 xx (100)/(110)`
= ₹20000
(ii) Amount of VAT paid by the dealer

= `₹25000 xx (10)/(100)`
= ₹2500.
