if a 30 day subscription is 499 plus 8% tax, being prorated for 7 days, plus there is $10 off coupon, what's the final cost?
Is that subcription $499 or $49.90 or $4. 99??
$499
It is $499.00
To calculate the final cost, we need to consider three factors: the original price of the 30-day subscription, the tax, and the $10 off coupon. Let's break it down step by step:
1. Original Price of the 30-day subscription: The original price is given as $499.
2. Tax: We need to calculate the tax at a rate of 8%. To do this, we multiply the original price of the subscription by 8% (which is 0.08).
Tax = $499 * 0.08 = $39.92
3. Prorated Price for 7 days: Since the subscription is prorated for 7 days, we need to calculate the price for those 7 days. To do this, we divide the original price of the subscription by 30 (the total number of days in the subscription) and multiply it by 7.
Prorated Price = ($499 / 30) * 7 = $116.57 (rounded to two decimal places)
4. Apply the $10 off coupon: We subtract $10 from the prorated price.
Final Price = Prorated Price - $10 = $116.57 - $10 = $106.57
So, the final cost after considering the prorated price, tax, and coupon is $106.57.
$499 * 0.08 = 39.92
499 + 39.92 = 538.92
539.92 - 10 = 529.92
