Question

Samir bought the following articles from a departmental store:

Item	Quantity	Rate per Item (₹)	Rate of tax (Sale)
Shirts	4	200·00	8%
Pair of shoe	2	350·00	10%
Television	1	10900·00	10%
Tea set	1	750·00	8%

Calculate the total bill paid, including sales tax, by samir to the department store.

Answer 1

We have
Cost price of 4 shirts = ₹ 200 x 4 = ₹ 800

Sales tax = ₹ 800 x `(8)/(100)` = ₹ 64

Amount paid for 4 shirts
= ₹ (800 + 64)
= ₹ 864.

Cost price of 2 pairs of shoe
= ₹ (350 x 2)
= ₹ 700.

Sales tax = ₹ 700 x `(10)/(100)` = ₹ 70

So, amount paid for 2 pairs of shoe
= ₹ (700 + 70)
= ₹ 770.

Cost price of T.V. = ₹ 10,900

Sales tax  = ₹ 10,900 x `(10)/(100)`
= ₹ 1,090

So, amount for T.V. set
= ₹ (10,900 + 1,090)
= ₹ 11,990

Cost price of tea set = ₹ 750

Sales tax = ₹`(750 xx 8/100)` = ₹ 60

So, amount paid for tea set
= ₹ (750 + 60)
= ₹ 810

Hence, total amount of the bill
= ₹ (864 + 770 + 11,990 + 810)
= ₹ 14,434.
