Answer: The answer is given below
Step-by-step explanation:
a. What is the extended list price of the order?
This will be gotten by multiplying the number of cases with the price list. From the question, we are told that Whole Foods Market ordered 12 cases of organic vegetable soup with a list price of $18.90 per case and 8 cases of organic baked beans with a list price of $33.50 per case.
Organic vegetable soup:
= 12 × $18.90
= $226.80
Organic baked beans= 8 × $33.50
= $268
Total = $226.80 + $268
= $494.80
b. What is the total amount of the trade discount on this order?
We are told that the wholesaler offered Whole Foods a 39% trade discount. This will be:
= 39% × $494.80
= 39/100 × $494.80
= 0.39 × $494.80
= $192.972
c. What is the total net amount Whole Foods owes the wholesaler for the order?
The total net amount will be the total price of the order and the discount. This will be:
= $494.80 - $192.972
= $301.828
