Question 1 - Page 19 Check if the calculations are correct in the bill shown.Step 1: Calculate the Cost of Items Item: CFL Bulb Quantity (Qty): 3 Price per bulb: ₹ 150.00 First, we find the total cost of the bulbs before tax. 𝟑" bulbs "×₹𝟏𝟓𝟎=₹𝟒𝟓𝟎 Check the bill: The "Amount" column says ₹450.00. This is correct. Step 2: Calculate the Taxes The bill adds two taxes on top of the ₹450. A. Calculating CGST (𝟗%) We need to find 9% of 450 . 9% of 450 = 9% × 450 = 𝟗/𝟏𝟎𝟎 × 450 = 9/10 × 45 = 9/2 × 9 = 81/2 = 40.5 So, the CGST is ₹40.50. Check the bill: The bill says CGST 𝟗% is ₹40.50. This is correct. B. Calculating SGST ( 𝟗% ) Since the percentage is the same ( 9% ), the amount will be the same as above. So, the SGST is also ₹40.50. Check the bill: The bill says SGST 9% is ₹40.50. This is correct. Step 3: Calculate the Total Bill Now, we add the Cost of items + CGST + SGST to find the final amount you have to pay. Cost of Bulbs: ₹450.00 Add CGST: + ₹40.50 Add SGST: + ₹40.50 Now, Let's add the taxes first: 40.50+40.50=81.00. Now add that to the subtotal: 450+81=531 Total = ₹531.00 Check the bill: The bill shows a TOTAL of ₹531.00. Final Answer Is the calculation correct? Yes, the calculations in the bill shown are perfectly correct.
