Question

The cost of a downloaded album is $10.99. Added to this cost is a 10% before-tax processing fee, 5% GST, and 7% PST. What is the total cost of the album?

Answer 1

the answer is 13.4078

Explanation:

First, we calculate the processing fee: 10.99 * 0.1 = 1.099

Then, we calculate the GST: 10.99 * 0.05 = 0.5495

Then, we calculate the PST: 10.99 * 0.07 = 0.7693

Now, we add all of the costs together: 10.99 + 1.099 + 0.5495 + 0.7693 = 13.4078

So the answer is 13.4078
