  2. $2,600$

  3. $2,500$

  4. None of these

Show answer
Correct Option: A
Explanation:

$\Rightarrow$  Output tax = Tax realized by the retailer from the customer $= 12\%$ of $3000$.

$\Rightarrow$  Output Tax $=$ Rs. $360$.
$\Rightarrow$  Let the price of the article charged by the wholesaler be P before tax.
$\Rightarrow$  Then the input tax $= 12\%$ of P $=\dfrac{12P}{100}=\dfrac{3P}{25}$
$\Rightarrow$  $VAT = Output\, tax\, - Input\, tax$
$\Rightarrow$   $72=360-\dfrac{3P}{25}$
$\Rightarrow$   $\dfrac{3P}{25}=360-72$

$\Rightarrow$   $\dfrac{3P}{25}=288$

$\Rightarrow$   $P=288\times \dfrac{25}{3}$

$\therefore$    $P=Rs.2400$
$\Rightarrow$   Then, $Input\, tax=\dfrac{3\times 2400}{25}=Rs.288$
$\Rightarrow$  The required price = P + Input tax = Rs. 2400+288 = $Rs.2,688$.

  3. Rs. 19.70

  4. Rs . 20

Then, $6$% of $x =\frac{30}{100}$

 $=>x =(\frac{30}{100}\times \frac{100}{6})=5$
 Cost of tax free items $= Rs. [25 - (5 + 0.30)] = Rs. 19.70$

  2. $Rs.53.34$

  3. $Rs. 653.34$

  4. None of these

Show answer
Correct Option: A
Explanation:

Sarita purchases biscuits costing $Rs 158$


And give sales tax $6%$ then sales tax$=\dfrac{158\times 6}{100}=Rs 9.48$


So total amount with $S.T=158.00+9.48=Rs. 167.48$

Cost of cosmetic goods is $Rs  354$

Then sales tax $@ 9% =$$\dfrac{354\times 9}{100}=Rs. 31.86$

So total amount with $S.T =354.00+31.86=Rs. 385.86 $

So total amount paid by Sarita $=167.48+385.86=Rs. 553.34$

  1. $Rs. 26,000$

  2. $Rs. 25,000$

  3. $Rs. 30,000$

  4. None of these

Show answer
Correct Option: A
Explanation:
Let the list price of T.V is $Rs x$

Then sales tax @9% =$\dfrac{x\times 9}{100}=\dfrac{9x}{100}$

And  sales tax @6% =$\dfrac{x\times 6}{100}$=$\dfrac{6x}{100}$ 

Then geeta save Rs $\dfrac{6x}{100}$-$\dfrac{6x}{100}$

But she save Rs 780

$\dfrac{9x}{100}-\dfrac{6x}{100}=780$

$\Rightarrow \dfrac{9x-6x}{100}=780$
$\Rightarrow 3x=78000$

$\Rightarrow x=26000$ 
Then list price of T.V $=Rs 26000$

  2. $ 10\% ;  Rs. 2,339$

  3. $ 15\% ;  Rs. 4,339$

  4. None o these

Show answer
Correct Option: A
Explanation:
Marked price of the article $=Rs.4500$
Rate of sales tax $=6\%$
VAT paid by the trader $=Rs.81$
C.P for the customer=Rs.4500
Sales tax paid=$4500\times \dfrac{6}{100}=Rs.270$
So sales tax paid by the trader$=270-81=Rs.189$
C.P for the trader$=\dfrac{4500\times 189}{270}=Rs.3150$
(1)
Amount of discount=$4500-3150=Rs.1350$
Rate of discount$=\dfrac{1350\times 100}{4500}=30$%
(2)
Total amount paid by the trader$=3150+6\%  of   3150$
$\Rightarrow 3150+\dfrac{6}{100}\times 3150$
$\Rightarrow 3150+189=Rs.3339$
