Answer:

The cost of shipping and handling is $23.45 .

Step-by-step explanation:

As given

Business services ordered a chair that cost $220.59.

if the California sales tax rate is 7.9%

7.9% is written in the decimal form

= \frac{7.9}{100}

= 0.079

Thus

Sales tax price = 0.079 × Cost of the chair

                         = 0.079 × $220.59

                         = $ 17.43 (Approx)

Thus

Cost of the  ordered chair with sales tax price = Cost of the chair + Sales tax price .

                                                                            = $ 220.59 + $17.43

                                                                            = $ 238.02

As given

Upon arrival they received an invoice for $261.47.

Thus

Cost of  shipping and handling = Cost mentioned in invoice - Cost of the  ordered chair with sales tax price.

Put all the values in the above

Cost of  shipping and handling = $261.47 - $238.02

                                                   = $ 23.45

Therefore the cost of shipping and handling is $23.45 .

Answer:

Cost of shipping and handling = $23.453

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Price of Chair=$220.59

Tax=7.9%

Invoice Price=$261.47

In order to find the cost of shipping and handling, we have to subtract the cost of chair and the tax from the invoice price of chair.

To find the tax,

Tax amount=220.59*0.079

=$17.42661

Now,

Cost of shipping and handling=$261.47-$220.59-$17.42661

=$23.453 ..
