Answer 1

Solution a:

If invoice is paid on 15/07/15:

The amount of any discounts that may be applicable (inc GST) = 0

Discount will not be available as payment is made after 10 days

GST related to discount if any = 0

Discount net of GST if any = 0

Amount of GST in the original invoice = 11000 / 110*10 = $1,000

Total amount that will be payable = $11,000

Solution b:

If invoice is paid on 12/07/15:

The amount of any discounts that may be applicable (inc GST) = 11000*5% = $550

GST related to discount if any = 550/110*10 = $50

Discount net of GST if any = $550 - $50 = $500

Amount of GST in the original invoice = 11000 / 110*10 = $1,000

Total amount that will be payable = $11,000 - $550 = $10,450
