Gabriel bought four juicers that cost $258 each before Goods and Service Tax (GST).
- Given that GST was charged at 4%, how much GST did Gabriel have to pay for one juicer?
- What was the total cost of the juicers, inclusive of GST?
(a)
GST that Gabriel had to pay for one juicer
= 4% x 258
=
4100 x 258
= $10.32
(b)
Cost of one juicer inclusive of GST
= 258 + 10.32
= $268.32
Cost of four juicers inclusive of GST
= 4 x 268.32
= $1073.28
Answer(s): (a) $10.32; (b) $1073.28
