The cost of furniture inclusive of VAT is $Rs.\ 7150$. If the rate of VAT is $10\%$, find the original cost of the furniture.

  1. $Rs.\ 5000$

  2. $Rs.\ 3000$

  3. $Rs.\ 6500$

  4. $Rs.\ 2000$


Correct Option: A
Explanation:

Let the cost be Rs $x$
VAT $= 10 \%$
Cost including VAT $= Rs. 7150 = x + 10 \%$ of $x$
$7150 = x + \cfrac{10}{100} \times x$
$7150 = \cfrac{110}{100} x$
$x = Rs. 6500$
Thus, original cost of the furniture is $Rs. 6500$

The marked price of an article is Rs. $900$ and the rate of sales tax on it is $6 \%$.If on selling the article at its marked price, a retailer has to pay Rs $4.80$ ; find the money paid by him (including sales tax) for purchasing the article.

  1. $700.40$

  2. $800.20$

  3. $829.20$

  4. $869.20$


Correct Option: D
Explanation:

Let the profit of the retailer $=$ Rs. $x$

As the VAT paid by the shopkeeper is Rs. $4.80$ and rate of sales tax is $6\%$, then $6\%$ of $x$ $=4.80$.
$\Rightarrow \dfrac {6}{100}\times x=4.80$
$\Rightarrow x=\dfrac {480}{6}=80$
Now, profit of the retailer $=900-80=$ Rs. $820$
Sales tax paid by the retailer $=6\%$ of Rs. $820=\dfrac {6}{100}\times 820=$ Rs.$49.20$.
So, price of the article including sales tax paid by the retailer $=820+49.20=$ Rs. $869.20$.
Therefore, the money paid for purchasing the article is Rs. $869.20$.
