1. Discount
At the end of the year or at other celebration events, many
shops usually offer a discount to attract new buyers. A
discount is also called price cutting. Thus a discount is
equivalent to a price reduction given to customers.
2. Tax
When we buy something, usually the price which is
to be paid includes what so-called tax. Such a tax
sometimes is included in the price. This kind of tax is
called Value Added Tax (Pajak Pertambahan Nilai =
PPN) and the amount of tax is given by the
government, that is, 10%.
In addition, one who earns a wage is also to pay
some tax. This tax is so-called withholding tax or
income tax (Pajak Penghasilan abbreviated PPh), the
amount of which is determined by the government,
that is, 15%.

= Rp 1,650,000.00
Gross 100 kg
Net 98 kg
Gross 40 kg
Net 35 kg
Solution :
Buying price = Rp 840,000.00
Total weight of apples = 3 x 35 kg = 105 kg
Selling price of apples per kg = Rp 8,500.00
Total selling price = 105 x Rp 8,500.00
= Rp 892,000.00
Since the selling price was greater than the buying price,
the grocer made a profit.
