You are purchasing office supplies. Because of the volume of your orders your company receives 15% off all purchases. You buy a case of paper for $24.95 and a toner refill at $35.99. You find discontinued ink for $49.95 at 50% off. The local sales tax is 4.5%.
My answer is assuming to work out the total money spent:
24.95 + 35.99 = 60.94 50% of 49.95 = 24.98 Total = 85.92 Discounted gross price= 73.03 Total net pay = $76.31
The way I worked it out involves working out the discount price before the tax pay and also assumes that the ink price is the price before the 50% discount.
