Question 898096
the base price of the product is b.


the excise price of the product is e.


the net price of the product is n.


you get:


e = .103 * b + b which is equal to 1.103 * b.


n = e + .02 * e which is equal to 1.02 * e.


in the equation of n = 1.02 * e, replace e with it's equivalent of 1.103 * b to get:


n = 1.02 * 1.103 * b


solve for b to get:


b = n / (1.02 * 1.103)


simplify to get:


b = n / 1.12506


since n = 6130, this means that b = 5448.598297.


since e = 1.103 * b, you get e = 6009.803922.


since n = 1.02 * e, you get n = 6130.


everything checks out ok.


your base price is equal to 5448.598297...
