Price price or the listed price

A. DISCOUNT
Discount is a reduction in the price of goods and services sold to
customers. It is offered by the shopkeeper to attract costumer to buy goods
and thereby increase sales. Sometimes to dispose of the old , damaged or
perishable goods the retailers offer these goods at reduced prices. The
retailers also reduce prices to increase the sale by reducing the marked prices
of the articles. It is generally expressed as percent or a fraction of the marked
or original price.
NOTE: Discount is always calculated on the marked price.
In solving the problems on discount, the following formula are generally
used:
100 %
Usually, people state that :
Original Price = 100%,
ORIGINAL PRICE
Discount = n%,
DISCOUN NET PRICE
Net Price = Original Price – T
Discount
= (100 – n)% n% (100 – n)
%
Example:
1. The price of a toy is Rp 18,000. Mom gets 10% discount formaking cash
payment. How much should she pay if she bought 2 toys?
Answer
First way: Original Price = Rp 18,000,
Since Mom buys 2 toys, Original price = 2 × Rp18,000 = Rp 36,000
10
Discount = 10% of Original Price = × Rp 36,000=Rp 3,600
100
Net Price= Original Price – Discount = Rp 36,000 – Rp 3,600 = Rp 32,400
So, Mom will pay for Rp 32,400.
Second way,
Original Price = 100 %, Discount = 10 %, Net Price = 100% – 10% = 90%.
Original Price = Rp 18,000,
Since Mom buys 2 toys, Original price = 2 × Rp18,000 = Rp 36,000
90
Sale Price = 90% of the Original Price= × Rp 36,000=Rp 32,400
100
So, Mom will pay for Rp 32,400.
Note:
Two methods for calculating the discounted price:
1. Calculate the discount amount as a percentage of the original price. Then
subtract.
2. Find what percentage of the price is left. Calculate that percentage of the
normal price.
2. In a sale, a cassette recorder was sold for $2071 after 5% discount was given.
Calculate the original price of the cassette recorder!
Answer:
First way
If the original price = 100 %, discount = 5%,
Then Net price = 100 % – 5 % = 95 %
Net Price = $ 2071
100 %
Original Price = × $ 2071=$ 2180
95 %
Second way:
If the original price = 100 %, discount = 5%,
Then Net price = 100 % – 5 % = 95 %
