Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
A) The dealer bought Birr 8000 at 7% tax.
Total amount to be paid = cost price (1 + r%)
r = 7% = 0.07
Total amount to be paid
B) To find the VAT, it is the difference between the tax paid when the good was bought and the tax put on it after it was sold.
Tax paid when the shoes were bought = 7% of cost price
Tax paid when the shoes were sold = 9% of selling price
VAT = tax recovered on sale - Tax paid on purchase
