4. PercentageC) Some Formulas in Percentage:1) Percentage Change: % change = new value - original value × 100 Original value2) Percentage Error % error = Error × 100 Real value 3) Percentage Increases and Interest New value = 100 + percentage increase × original value 1004) Compound Interest: (100 + %change)no of years × original value5) Percentage decreases New value = 100 - percentage decrease × original value 100
5. PercentageD) Computing percentage of following:1) Sales tax and Gratuities:Sales tax is levied on the sale of a commodity, which is produced or imported and sold for the first time. If the product is sold subsequently without being processed further, it is exempt from sales tax. Example:Mary bought a purse for Rs. 100and a pair of shoes for Rs. 190. What total amount did she pay if a 7.5% sales tax was added to the price of the items?Solution: Rs. l00 + Rs. 190 = Rs. 290 7.5/100 x 290/1= Rs. 21.75 Sales Tax Rs. 290 + Rs. 21.75 = Rs. 311.75 Total Paid So, Mary has to paid311.75 Rs. Totally.
6. Percentage2) Discount: A good way to save money is to shop when merchandise is on sale. After Christmas many stores reduce the prices of toys, furniture, and other household items. In late February and March winter clothing usually is cleared out at lowered prices. Following the fourth of July there are reductions on summer items. Example:Janet bought a coat which usually sells for Rs. 980.00 at 25% off. What did she pay for the coat? Solution: 25/100 x Rs. 980.00 = 1/4 x 980.00 = Rs. 245.0Rs. 980.00-Rs. 245 =Rs. 735.0 So, Janet paid Rs. 735.0 for the coat.
7. Percentage3) Commission: Manufacturers and producers of goods are not always able to sell their own products. It is necessary for them to employ agents to sell the articles for them. The pay received by the agent, or salesman, for work or services performed is called commission. Sometimes the commission is a certain amount for each article sold. Sometimes the commission is a certain amount for each article sold. Other times it is a percentage of the dollar value of the sales. Example:A salesman who works on a commission basis receives 12% of his sales. How much was his commission on a sale amounting to Rs. 2650?Solution: Let N= the missing number.Change 12% to 12/100.12/100 x 2650/1= N 31800/100= NN = Rs. 318.0The salesman earned Rs. 318.0 commission.
8. Percentage4) Simple interest: Just as people pay for the use of items belonging to others, they pay for the use of money belonging to someone else. The price paid for the use of money is called interest. Simple interest is the amount paid on a sum of money, borrowed or invested, which remains unchanged for a specific period of time. Example:Steve borrowed Rs. 120000 at 14% per year simple interest for 8 months. What was the total amount due when he repaid the loan?Solution:Principal = Rs. 120000 Rate of Interest = 14/100 Time = 8/12 year Interest = Principal x Rate x Time Interest = Rs. 120000/1 x 14/100 x 8/12 = Rs. 11200.00Amount Due = Principal + InterestAmount Due = Rs. 120000 + Rs. 11200.0 = Rs. 131200.0
9. Percentage5) Compound Interest: Simple interest is computed on a principal which remains unchanged for a specific period of time. Compound interest is calculated on a principal that changes at the end of stated time period when interest is added to it. The time period may be any interval during the year such as annually, semi-annually, quarterly, monthly or daily. Example: John invested Rs. 500 at 6% compounded monthly. How much compound interest did he earn during the tour months? Solution:
