Answer: 101


SOLUTION 1 :

Soln  :

    Given VAT is 5%

    If the price without VAT is 100, then the price including VAT is 105.

    Now, When price including VAT is 105, original price is 100.

    When price including VAT is 2113, the original price of the suitcase 

                                    =   (100÷105) x 2113

                                    =   2012

                  VAT           =   2113-2012

                                    =     101
