On seeing the below display board outside Pearl Stationary Shop, Chetan enters the shop to buy the following items:
| Pen | Pencil | Rainbow cover notebook | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Price | ₹5 each | ₹7 each | ₹ 200 each |
| Discount | 5% on a dozen pens | 10% on 20 pencils | ------ |
| Premium | - | - | ₹50 on each notebook |
| Items purchased | 1 dozen | 20 pencils | 5 |
| GST | 18% | 12% | 12% |
The shopkeeper handed over the bill to Chetan saying that he has given further discount of 2% on total bill. Chetan became so happy hearing about the discount that he did not check the bill until he reached home. He later found out that though shopkeeper has given 2% discount as promised, he had also mischarged uniform 18% GST on all the items.
(a) Calculate :
(i) total selling price of all the items as per the offers displayed on the board.
(ii) total amount to be paid by Chetan including GST with correct rates.
(iii) actual amount charged by the shopkeeper.
(b) Did the shopkeeper overcharge Chetan? Justify your answer
