Question

Question 21 2 pts A copper wire manufacturer traditionally offers distributors a 25% trade discount off of suggested retail price. This month, the price of copper is down so the manufacturer offers an additional 10% discount. Large orders of a ton or more also receive an additional 5% discount. Assume the suggested retail price is $6,000 for a ton of copper. What would be the total discount if you ordered a ton of copper? (Hint: may want to calculate Selling Price first.) $2,152.50 $3,847.50 $2,400.00 $3,600.00 $7.50 Question 22 2 pts

Answer 1

Selling price of the copper wire = 75% of $6000

= $4500

After 10% discount the copper wire will price = 90% of $4500

= $4050

Ans addition 5% discount will be given on large order which will make price of copper wire = 95% of 4050

= $3847.5

Thus the total discount = $6000 - $3847.5

= $2152.5
