1 answer:
Answer:
Store A offers the least amount for the sofa
Step-by-step explanation:
Cost of sofa =$500
For store A
Discount =20% off
The amount of the discount is
=20/100*500
=0.2*500
=$100
6.5% sales tax
The amount of tax is
=6.5/100*500
=0.065*500
=$32.5
Total cost of the sofa
=500-100+32.5
=400+32.5
=$432.5
For store B
Discount =30% off
The amount of the discount is
=30/100*500
=0.3*500
=$150
Shipping fee $85
Total cost of sofa
=500-150+85
=350+85
=$435
