Step-by-Step Worked Example

Scenario: An $80.00 jacket discounted by 25% with 7% sales tax.

  1. Savings = $80.00 * 0.25 = $20.00.
  2. Discounted price = $80.00 - $20.00 = $60.00.
  3. Sales tax = $60.00 * 0.07 = $4.20.
  4. Final total = $60.00 + $4.20 = $64.20.

Result: Sale Price: $60.00 (Saved $20.00)

Frequently Asked Questions

How do stacked discounts work (e.g. 20% off plus an extra 10% coupon)?

Stacked discounts apply consecutively rather than being summed. An extra 10% coupon is taken off the already-reduced price, resulting in a total discount of 28% rather than 30%.
