Question

Even after that large purchase at Best Buy, you decide to go to Target to grab a few things that you missed. You purchase WWE 2K21 for $49.99, Starbucks Vanilla Coffee for $13.99, the new Keurig K550 for $179.99, and a pair of jeans for $17.99. The state sales tax is 6%.
What is the total selling price before tax?

How much is sales tax did you pay?

What was your total cost?

Answer 1

The total selling price before tax is $261.96.

The sales tax paid is $15.72.

The total cost is  $277.68.

The total selling price before tax is the sum of the prices of the WWE 2K21, Starbucks Vanilla Coffee,  new Keurig K550 and the jeans

$49.99 + $13.99 + $179.99 + $17.99 = $261.96.

Sales tax is the amount of money levied when a good or service is purchased. It is a percentage of the price of an item

Sales tax = tax rate x cost

6% x $261.96 = $15.72

The total price paid is the sum of the sales tax and the  total selling price.

$15.72 +  $261.96 = $277.68
