Store A charges $1,200 for repairs with a 6 percent sales tax.
Store B charges $1,350 with a 7 percent sales tax.
Explain how you would determine the amount of money saved by using Store A instead of Store B?

Respuesta :

At least 240

Store A charges initially less than store B, and uses a smaller percentage of sales tax. $1,200<$1,350. Meaning your saving $150 dollars as of initial payment.


Now looking at the tax percentage, you must find the sales tax. To calculate the sales tax divide the receipts from items subject to sales tax, and divide the receipts by 1+ the sales tax rate. In this case, we’ll be dividing the total amount of receipts by 1.06.
