How are a discount and a sales tax alike How are they different?

A discount and a sales tax both affect the final price of a product, but they do so in opposite ways. A discount reduces the initial price, allowing customers to pay less for an item, while a sales tax is an additional charge applied to the price, increasing the total cost. Both are calculated as percentages, but discounts are typically based on promotional offers, whereas sales tax is mandated by government regulations.

How do you find the discount and sales tax of a item?

To find the discount on an item, multiply the original price by the discount percentage (expressed as a decimal), then subtract that amount from the original price.

What is the difference between tax and discount?

Tax is a mandatory financial charge imposed by the government on goods and services, which is added to the sale price and collected from the consumer.

Why must you first calculate a discount price on an item before calculating the total sales tax on the item?

The discount must be calculated first to get the base price of the item, then the tax percentage would be taken into consideration, otherwise you would be charging additional tax on an item which should be discounted in the first place. If you were to calculate tax first then the discount price, your total would be incorrect.
