Question

Ashraf went to see a movie. He wanted to purchase a movie ticket for Rs. $80$. AS the ticket for Rs. $80$ was not available, he purchased a ticket for Rs. $120$ of upper class. How much extra GST did he pay for the ticket? (Gst for a ticket below Rs. $100$ is $18\%$ and GST for a ticket above Rs. $100$ is $28\%$).

Answer 1

From the question, we have

GST on ticket of $Rs.80=18\%$ of $80=18/100\times 80=Rs.14.40$

GST on ticket of $Rs.120=28\%$ of $120=28/100\times 120=Rs.33.60$

So,

The difference between both GST $=33.60-14.40=Rs.19.20$

Thus, the extra GST Asharaf paid for the ticket was $Rs.19.20$
