First, we need to calculate the sales tax amount.
Sales Tax = Food Cost * Tax Rate
Sales Tax = $105.79 * 9% = $9.52
Next, we need to calculate the tip amount based on the pretax amount.
Tip Amount = Food Cost * Tip Rate
Tip Amount = $105.79 * 20% = $21.16
Finally, we can calculate the total amount including tax and tip.
Total = Food Cost + Sales Tax + Tip Amount
Total = $105.79 + $9.52 + $21.16 = $136.47
The total bill, including sales tax and a 20% tip, will be $136.47.
