For Article A,
M.P. = ₹ 190, Quantity = 6
Total M.P. = ₹ 190 × 6 = ₹ 1,140
G.S.T. = 12%
G.S.T. amount = $12%$ of ₹ 1,140
$= \frac{12}{100} \times 1140$ = ₹ 136.80
Total amount = ₹ 1,140 + ₹ 136.80 = ₹ 1,276.80
For Article B,
M.P. = ₹ 50, Quantity = 12
(Discount 5% applicable as quantity > 10)
Total M.P. = ₹ 50 × 12 = ₹ 600
Discount = 5% of ₹ 600
$= \frac{5}{100} \times 600$ = ₹ 30
Taxable value = ₹ 600 - ₹ 30 = ₹ 570
G.S.T. = 18%
G.S.T. amount = 18% of ₹ 570
$= \frac{18}{100} \times 570$ = ₹ 102.60
Total amount = ₹ 570 + ₹ 102.60 = ₹ 672.60
Total bill = ₹ 1,276.80 + ₹ 672.60 = ₹ 1,949.40
Rounded off to the nearest ₹10 then bill= ₹ 1,950
The customer paid ₹ 2,000, which is ₹ 50 extra (₹ 2,000 - ₹ 1,950).
Hence, the customer paid ₹ 50 extra.
