Final answer:
After calculating a 10% discount on the marked price of Rs 1000 and adding a 13% VAT to the discounted price, the final price of the radio is found to be Rs 1017, which is not listed in the given options.
Step-by-step explanation:
The question requires us to calculate the price of a radio after a discount and the addition of VAT (Value Added Tax). The radio has a marked price of Rs 1000, a 10% discount, and then a 13% VAT is applied to the discounted price.
Step-by-step Calculation:
Determine the discounted price by calculating 10% of the marked price and subtracting it from the marked price:
Discount = 10/100 × 1000 = Rs 100
Discounted price = 1000 - 100 = Rs 900
Calculate the price after VAT by adding 13% of the discounted price to it:
VAT = 13/100 × 900 = Rs 117
Price after VAT = 900 + 117 = Rs 1017
The price of the radio after applying the discount and adding the VAT would be Rs 1017, which is not one of the options provided. Hence, there might be a typo in the options or a miscalculation in the question. The closest match in the provided options would be 'b) Rs 1071.60', but this is not the correct answer as per the calculation.
