The objectives of this section are to

understand the difference between cash price and hire purchase
be able to calculate percentage increase and decrease in price
be able to calculate GCT in context.
You are familiar with buying items in shops and markets but often, when buying expensive goods, different methods of payment are available.

You might be offered a hire purchase agreement: you would pay a deposit and then pay the remainder of the cost of the item in a specified number of (often monthly) instalments. In a sale, the cash price might be reduced.

You need to remember that most goods are subject to a government sales tax, often referred to as VAT (value added tax). In Jamaica this government tax is GCT (general consumption tax) which is currently charged at 16

Uncle percy sold t-shirts at the show. Now he only have 10% of the t-shirts he started with. If he has 25 t-shirts now, how many
Nikitich [7]
Percy used to have 100% of the shirts (before he started selling them). Since then, he has given away 90% of the shirts and is now left with only 10% of what he used to have. He currently has 25 shirts, meaning that 25 is 10% of what he had.

Lets set up a proportion:

25 shirts : 10%
x shirts : 100%

x = 25*100 / 10
x = 2500 / 10
x = 250 shirts
Percy started off with 250 shirts.
