- You have just found out that ____________________ is your long lost cousin, and is coming over to visit (how exciting)! You decide to treat them to a meal in your restaurant, but your cousin pays the bill. You, accept, but insist on paying the tip. Remember that a typical gratuity is to tip 15% of the value of the meal (before taxes) or higher
- Order lunch for you and your cousin from your menu, and include the costs for each item
- Subtotal the entire bill (you can use a calculator for this part)
- CALCULATE the amount of tax (GST is 5%) that you needed to pay on your meal as well. Remember, that tax is based on the amount you pay
- ESTIMATE the tip that you need to leave. Explain how you got your estimate. State the percent you are planning on leaving for your tip.
