Daniel bought five juicers that cost $347 each before Goods and Service Tax (GST).
- Given that GST was charged at 9%, how much GST did Daniel have to pay for one juicer?
- What was the total cost of the juicers, inclusive of GST?
(a)
GST that Daniel had to pay for one juicer
= 9% x 347
=
9100 x 347
= $31.23
(b)
Cost of one juicer inclusive of GST
= 347 + 31.23
= $378.23
Cost of five juicers inclusive of GST
= 5 x 378.23
= $1891.15
Answer(s): (a) $31.23; (b) $1891.15
