A couch with a list price of $2200 will be discounted 35% at the time of purchase. What is the sale price before taxes?

1 answer

To calculate the sale price before taxes, we need to multiply the list price by the discount percentage.

Discount amount = List price x Discount percentage
Discount amount = $2200 x 35%
Discount amount = $2200 x 0.35
Discount amount = $770

Sale price before taxes = List price - Discount amount
Sale price before taxes = $2200 - $770
Sale price before taxes = $1430

Therefore, the sale price before taxes is $1430.
