Cost Price = $60

Markup = 25% x $60 = 0.25 x 60 = $15

Sales Price after markup = $60 + $15 = $75

Discount = 20% x $75 = 0.2 x 75 = $15

Sales Price after discount = $75 - $15 = $60

Sales Tax = 6% x $60 = 0.06 x 60 = $3.60

Sales Price with Discount after tax = $60 + $3.60 = $63.60

Answer: $63.60
