Answer:

€9.31

Explanation:

Let x be the price of the calculator.
The VAT applied is equal to 19% of the calculator's cost. In algebraic form, this would be 0.19x.

The total price for the calculator, including the applied VAT, can be expressed as
x + 0.19x = 1.19x .

We know that this total is equal to €58.31, therefore we'll equate the two expressions and solve for x.

$1.19x = 58.31 \text{ // }/1.19\\x = 49$

The price of the calculator is €49.
Therefore, the VAT applied is equal to 49 * 0.19 = €9.31
