To calculate the price of the software package based on the quantity purchased, follow these steps:
Step 1: Identify the quantity of packages being purchased.
Step 2: Determine the applicable discount based on the quantity purchased using the following table:
- For a quantity between 10 and 19, a discount of 20% applies.
- For a quantity between 20 and 49, a discount of 30% applies.
- For a quantity between 50 and 99, a discount of 40% applies.
- For a quantity of 100 or more, a discount of 50% applies.
Step 3: Calculate the discount amount by multiplying the retail price of the software package by the applicable discount percentage.
Step 4: Subtract the discount amount from the retail price to determine the final price.
Let's go through an example:
Example: Suppose a customer purchases 25 software packages.
Step 1: The quantity of packages purchased is 25.
Step 2: Since 25 falls between 20 and 49, the discount applicable is 30%.
Step 3: The discount amount is calculated by multiplying $99 by 30%:
Discount amount = $99 * 0.3 = $29.70
Step 4: The final price is determined by subtracting the discount amount from the retail price:
Final price = $99 - $29.70 = $69.30
So, for a purchase of 25 software packages, the price will be $69.30 per package.
