Answer: $135,950

Explanation:

Given the following

List price = $125,000

2% discount if payment is made within 10 days

Sales tax = $6,250

Installation charges = $2,200

Concrete slab = $5,000

Total sales = [(100 - 2)% × list price] +sales tax + installation charges + concrete slab

Total sales =( 98% × 125,000) + 6250 + 2200 + 5000

Total sales = $(122,500 + 6250 + 2200 + 5000)

Total sales = $135,950
