Question

Xandro's Lighting Company purchased a dozen light bulbs for 900 pesos each. This purchased was subject to a trade discount of 25%. What was the total net price?

Answer 1

Total price of one dozen light bulbs will be equal to

`12*900=10800`

Total trade discount is equal to (list price x trade discount rate)

`\text{Discount }=10800*0.25=2700`

So, the net price will be (List price - discount)

`\text{Net price = 10800-2700=}8100`

Therefore, the total net price is 8100 pesos.
