Hello,

Marked price = Rs. 12,000

Manufacturer sell printer at 15% discount to wholesaler

Discount = 12000 * 15/100 => Rs. 1800

Discount = 1800

The price of printer after discount = 12000-1800

= Rs.  10200

GST = 12%

Tax payed by wholesaler = 12% of 10200

= Rs. 1224

The wholesaler sell at 10% discount on marked price to shopkeeper

Discount = 10% of 12000

= Rs. 1200

The price of printer after discount = 12000-1200 => Rs. 10800

GST = 12%

Tax payed by shopkeeper = 12% of 10800 => Rs. 1296.


the price paid by the wholesaler inclusive of tax= tax payed by the shopkeeper - tax payed by wholesaler

= 1296-1224 = Rs. 72

Hope you find this information helpful.

Thank you.

Hi students,

Discount = 12000*15/100 = 1800

Wholesaler bought a printer for= 12000-1800= 10200

Wholesaler sold that for = 12000-(10/100*12000)

= 12000- 1200 = 10800

Profit he makes by selling = 10800- 10200 = 600

Gst deposited by him = 12/100*600 = 72

I hope you will get your answer.
