A buyer values a house at $525,000 and a seller values the same house at $485,000. If sales tax is 8% and is levied on the seller, then what would be the lowest price that the seller would be willing to sell at?

To solve this business problem, we must understand that the price the seller would be will to part with will be his selling price and the percentage of sales tax incurred in the procurement.

This will be the minimum and least profitable estimated amount the seller is willing to sell at.

Lowest selling price = selling price by seller + amount of sales tax incurred

Sales tax amount = selling price x sales tax percentage

= $485000 x [tex]\frac{8}{100}[/tex]

= $38800

Lowest selling price = $485000 + $38800 = $523,800

A buyer values a house at $525,000 and a seller values the same house at $485,000. If sales tax is 8% and is levied on the seller, then what would be the lowest price that the seller would be willing to sell at?​
