A second quote for 40 snow plows (including the 5.5% Ohio sales tax) is $105,254.40, which includes a discount. The original price per snow plow is $2,630 (excluding sales tax).
By what percent have the snow plows been discounted?
The discount is given by ;
( first quote - second quote ) / first quote =
(105254.40 - (40 * 2630) / (105254.40) = about 0.0005168430013377 = about .0517%
{That's not much of a "discount" is it ??? } ....sounds like a "snow job" .....LOL!!!!
