Here are the solutions to your questions:

1.1.1

The name of the cashier is stated on the slip.

  • Cashier's name: Nomsa

1.1.2

To fill in the missing values, we multiply the unit price by the quantity for each item. Then, we sum all the total prices to get the overall total.

  • a) Twist granadilla 330 ml x 4:

    4×R4,69=R18,764 \times \text{R}4,69 = \text{R}18,76
  • b) Blue Ribb bread: The unit price is R6,49, and it's a single item, so the total price is R6,49.

    R6,49\text{R}6,49
  • c) Mallow egg strip x 2:

    2×R2,79=R5,582 \times \text{R}2,79 = \text{R}5,58
  • d) Fanta orange 2L: The unit price is R11,99, and it's a single item, so the total price is R11,99.

    R11,99\text{R}11,99
  • Total (VAT inclusive): Sum of all total prices:

    R8,98+R18,76+R5,99+R5,99+R6,49+R13,99+R5,58+R11,99=R77,77\text{R}8,98 + \text{R}18,76 + \text{R}5,99 + \text{R}5,99 + \text{R}6,49 + \text{R}13,99 + \text{R}5,58 + \text{R}11,99 = \text{R}77,77

The missing values are:

  • a) R18,76
  • b) R6,49
  • c) R5,58
  • d) R11,99
  • Total (VAT inclusive): R77,77

1.1.3

The item on which no VAT is charged is indicated by the 0,00% VAT rate, which corresponds to the price of R6,49. Looking at the slip, the "Blue Ribb bread" has a unit price of R6,49.

  • Item with no VAT: Blue Ribb bread

1.1.4

  1. Calculate the total price of items subject to VAT.

    The total price (VAT inclusive) is R77,77. The item not charged VAT is Blue Ribb bread, which costs R6,49.

    Total VATable price=R77,77−R6,49=R71,28\text{Total VATable price} = \text{R}77,77 - \text{R}6,49 = \text{R}71,28
  2. Calculate the VAT charged on this amount.

    The VAT rate is 14,00%. Since R71,28 is inclusive of VAT, we can find the original price (excluding VAT) and then the VAT amount.

    Price excluding VAT=R71,281+0,14=R71,281,14≈R62,53\text{Price excluding VAT} = \frac{\text{R}71,28}{1 + 0,14} = \frac{\text{R}71,28}{1,14} \approx \text{R}62,53
  3. Calculate the VAT charged.

    VAT charged=R71,28−R62,53=R8,75\text{VAT charged} = \text{R}71,28 - \text{R}62,53 = \text{R}8,75
    • VAT charged: R8,75

    1.1.5

  4. Identify the original price of Galore eggs.

    From the slip, the price of Galore eggs is R13,99.

  5. Calculate the new price after an 8% increase.

    New price=R13,99×(1+0,08)=R13,99×1,08=R15,1092\text{New price} = \text{R}13,99 \times (1 + 0,08) = \text{R}13,99 \times 1,08 = \text{R}15,1092
  6. Round to two decimal places.

    New price≈R15,11\text{New price} \approx \text{R}15,11
    • New price of Galore eggs: R15,11

    1.2

  7. Calculate the price per egg for the container with 18 eggs.

    Price per egg (18 eggs)=R24,9918≈R1,3883 per egg\text{Price per egg (18 eggs)} = \frac{\text{R}24,99}{18} \approx \text{R}1,3883 \text{ per egg}
  8. Calculate the price per egg for the container with 6 eggs.

    Price per egg (6 eggs)=R8,996≈R1,4983 per egg\text{Price per egg (6 eggs)} = \frac{\text{R}8,99}{6} \approx \text{R}1,4983 \text{ per egg}
    • Price per egg (18 eggs): R1,39
    • Price per egg (6 eggs): R1,50

    1.3

    Comparing the prices per egg:
    R1,39 (for 18 eggs) is less than R1,50 (for 6 eggs).

    • Container with the best unit price: The container with 18 eggs.
