Question 1.
A manufacturing company sells a T.V. to a trader A for ₹ 18000. Trader A sells it to a trader B at a point of ₹ 750 and trader B sells it to a consumer at a profit of ₹ 900. If the rate of sales tax (under VAT) is 10%, find
(i) the amount of tax received by the Government.
(ii) the amount paid by the consumer for the T.V.
Solution:
Sale price of a T.V. to trader A = ₹ 18000
Rate of VAT tax = 10%

(i) Total tax paid to Govt. = ₹ (I800 + 75 + 90) = ₹ 1965
(ii) Amount paid by the consumer to trader B = ₹ 18000 + 750 + 900 + Tax 1965 = ₹ 21615

Question 2.
A manufacturer sells a washing machine to a wholesaler for ₹ 15000. The wholesaler sells it to a trader at a profit of ₹ 1200 and the trader sells it to a consumer at a profit of ₹ 1800. If the rate of VAT is 8%, find :
(i) The amount of VAT received by the State Government on the sale of this machine from the manufacturer and the wholesaler.
(ii) The amount that the consumer pays for the machine.
Solution:
Total amount under VAT = ₹ 15000 + ₹ 1200 + ₹ 1800 = ₹ 18000
(i) VAT = 8% of ₹ 18000
= $$\frac { 8 }{ 100 }$$ x 18000 = ₹ 1440
(ii) Consumer pays for the machine = ₹ 18000 + ₹ 1440 = ₹ 19440

Solution:
Cost price of raw material = ₹ 40000
Rate of sales tax = 4%
Total tax = ₹ $$\frac { 40000 x 4 }{ 100 }$$ = ₹ 1600
Selling price = ₹ 78000
Rate of sales tax = 7.5%

VAT paid by the manufacturer = ₹ 5850 – ₹ 1600 = ₹ 4250

Question 4.
A shopkeeper buys a camera at a discount of 20% from the wholesaler, the printed price of the camera being ₹ 1600 and the rate of sales tax is 6%. The shopkeeper sells it to the buyer at the printed price and charges sales tax at the same rate. Find

Question 5.
The printed price of an article is ₹ 60000. The wholesaler allows a discount of 20% to the shopkeeper. The shopkeeper sells the article to the customer at the printed price. Sales tax (under VAT) is charged at the rate of 6% at every stage. Find :
(i) the cost to the shopkeeper inclusive of tax.
(ii) VAT paid by the shopkeeper to the Government.
(iii) the cost to the customer inclusive of tax.
Solution:
Printed price of an article = ₹ 60000
Rate of discount allowed = 20%
Total discount = ₹ 60000 x $$\frac { 20 }{ 100 }$$ = ₹ 12000
S.P. after discount = ₹ 60000 – ₹ 12000 = ₹ 48000
Rate of VAT = 6%
(i) Amount paid by the shopkeeper
= ₹ 48000 + ₹ 48000 x $$\frac { 6 }{ 100 }$$
= ₹ 48000 + ₹ 2880 = ₹ 50880
(ii) The price at which the shopkeeper sold to the customer = ₹ 60000
Profit = ₹ 60000 – ₹ 48000 = ₹ 12000
VAT paid by the customer to the Govt.
= ₹ 12000 x $$\frac { 6 }{ 100 }$$ = ₹ 720
(iii) Total cost to the customer = ₹ 60000 + VAT inclusive of tax
= ₹ 60000 + $$\frac { 60000 x 6 }{ 100 }$$
= ₹ 60000 + ₹ 3600 = ₹ 63600

Solution:
List price (M.P.) of an article = ₹ 1500
Rate of VAT = 12%
Total VAT = ₹ $$\frac { 1500 x 12 }{ 100 }$$ = ₹ 180
But VAT paid by the shopkeeper = ₹ 36
Total VAT paid by wholeseller = ₹ 180 – ₹ 36 = ₹ 144
Rate of VAT = 12%
S.P. of the whole seller = $$\frac { 144 x 100 }{ 12 }$$ = ₹ 1200
Total amount paid by the wholeseller including VAT = ₹ 1200 + ₹ 144 = ₹ 1344

VAT paid by the shopkeeper = ₹ 6
VAT paid by the wholeseller = ₹ 60 – ₹ 6 = ₹ 54
Rate of VAT = 7.5%

Cost price of dealer A = ₹ 7500
and sale price of dealer A = ₹ 8500
Gain = ₹ 8500 – ₹ 7500 = ₹ 1000
or cost price of dealer B = ₹ 8500
Gain = ₹ 600
S.P. of dealer B = ₹ 8500 + ₹ 600 = ₹ 9100
Consumers cost price = ₹ 8500 + ₹ 600 = ₹ 9100
(ii) Tax paid to the Govt.
