Yes sir.
If I have a product that is $12.50 and there is a 7% tax rate, how much will the total cost?
To calculate the total cost including tax, you need to add the product price to the tax amount. Here's how you can find the total cost:
Step 1: Calculate the tax amount by multiplying the product price by the tax rate:
Tax Amount = Product Price x Tax Rate
Tax Amount = $12.50 x 0.07
Step 2: Add the tax amount to the product price to get the total cost:
Total Cost = Product Price + Tax Amount
Now, let's calculate the tax amount and total cost:
Tax Amount = $12.50 x 0.07
Tax Amount = $0.875
Total Cost = $12.50 + $0.875
Total Cost = $13.375
Therefore, the total cost, including the 7% tax, will be $13.375.
What if the sales tax is 6% sir?
If the sales tax is 6%, the process to find the total cost would be the same, but with a different tax rate. Let's recalculate:
Step 1: Calculate the tax amount by multiplying the product price by the tax rate:
Tax Amount = Product Price x Tax Rate
Tax Amount = $12.50 x 0.06
Step 2: Add the tax amount to the product price to get the total cost:
Total Cost = Product Price + Tax Amount
Now, let's calculate the tax amount and total cost:
Tax Amount = $12.50 x 0.06
Tax Amount = $0.75
Total Cost = $12.50 + $0.75
Total Cost = $13.25
Therefore, if the sales tax rate is 6%, the total cost would be $13.25.
