उत्तर
Cost price for retailer = Rs 800
Sales tax paid by retailer = 8% of Rs 800
`= 8/100 xx 800 = "Rs" 64`
Sale price for retailer = Rs 1,000
Tax charged by retailer = 8% of Rs 1,000
= 8/100 xx 1000 = Rs 80
Price paid by customer = Rs 1,000 + Rs 80 = Rs 1,080
VAT paid by retailer = Rs 80 – Rs 64 = Rs 16
