Answer: 37.5
Step-by-step explanation:
75 divided by 2
A] Given that the last years's sales was $144,600 and this years sales should increase by 1/3. Then:
i] Amount the sales should increased by will be:
(last year's sales)*(increase)
=144,600*(1/3)
=48,200
ii] The sales in the new year will be:
(last year's sales)+(increase)
=144600+48600
=$192, 800
2] Given that the sales of hifi which included 6% tax was 205,000. The actual sales was:
Actual percentage sales=100%
percentage sales after taxation=100-6=94%
thus the actual sales was:
(100)/(94)*205,000
=218, 085.1064
3]Given that the rate per $100 is $0.83, and the insurance was for 90000, the insurance premium will be:
(total insurance) *(unit rate)/(number of units)
plugging the values we obtain:
90000*0.83/100
$747
Since there are 63 passengers and it is $26 for each passenger,you have to do 63 x $26. 63 x $26 = $1638,so $1638 was collected from the passengers.
It would be equivalent to 18099
