Usually you get taxed on the real value of the goods, this is, before the discount. Like this:
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "Goods... : 7500
\n" ); document.write( "Tax..... : 375 (7500 × 0.05)
\n" ); document.write( "---------------
\n" ); document.write( "Total... : 7875
\n" ); document.write( "Discount : 375 (7500 × 0.05)
\n" ); document.write( "------------------------
\n" ); document.write( "Net. . . : 7500
\n" ); document.write( "~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
\n" ); document.write( "Having said that, I'm not your professor, and s/he may have asked for a different calculation, like this:
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "Goods. . . . : 7500
\n" ); document.write( "Discount. . .: 375
\n" ); document.write( "---------------------
\n" ); document.write( "Sub-total . .: 7125
\n" ); document.write( "Tax . . . . .: 356.25
\n" ); document.write( "----------------------------
\n" ); document.write( "Total. . . . : 7481.25
\n" ); document.write( "~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
\n" ); document.write( "Use the one that is appropriate in your case.
