PROBLEM TWO: SALES TAXES

Basic sales tax is applicable at a rate of 10% on all goods, except books, food, and medical products that are exempt. Import duty is an additional sales tax applicable on all imported goods at a rate of 5%, with no exemptions.

When I purchase items I receive a receipt which

  • lists the name of all the items and their price (including tax),
  • finishing with the total cost of the items,
  • and the total amounts of sales taxes paid.

The rounding rules for sales tax are that for a tax rate of n%, a shelf price of p contains (n*p/100 rounded up to the nearest 0.05) amount of sales tax.

Write an application that prints out the receipt details for these shopping baskets…
