VAT is a tax on which the state artificially betrays goods and services for final consumption. VAT in Slovakia is 20%. Calculate how much percent pay fewer tax residents of Japonska when VAT is only 5%.

Correct answer:

p =  14.29 %

Step-by-step explanation:

r1=100%+20%=1+20100=1.2 r2=100%+5%=1+5100=1.05  r=r1r2r2=1.21.051.05=170.1429  p=100 r=100 0.1429=14.29%r_{1} = 100\% + 20 \% = 1 + \dfrac{ 20 }{ 100 } = 1.2 \ \\ r_{2} = 100\% + 5 \% = 1 + \dfrac{ 5 }{ 100 } = 1.05 \ \\ \ \\ r = \dfrac{ r_{1}-r_{2} }{ r_{2} } = \dfrac{ 1.2-1.05 }{ 1.05 } = \dfrac{ 1 }{ 7 } \doteq 0.1429 \ \\ \ \\ p = 100 \cdot \ r = 100 \cdot \ 0.1429 = 14.29 \%
