Question: Is Suzy < p ?
Statement 1: S = 0.8P+0.1*(0.8p)
SUFFICIENT
Statement 2: Suzy = 200+0.1*Sales
No information about p to compare it with 0.1*Sales hence
NOT SUFFICIENT
Answer: Option A

I am confused since I thought St 1 is sufficient. Question is if Suzy paid <$p. From St 1, she paid 0.8p+ 0.1*0.8p = 0.88p < p. Did I miss something?
Thanks in advance.
Question: Is Suzy < p ?
Statement 1: S = 0.8P+0.1*Service tax
No information about p to compare it with 0.1*Service tax hence
NOT SUFFICIENT
Statement 2: Suzy = 200+0.1*Service Tax
No information about p to compare it with 0.1*Service tax and 200 hence
NOT SUFFICIENT
Combining the two statements
Suzy = 200+0.1*Service Tax = 0.8P+0.1*Service tax
i.e. p = 200/0.8 = 250
But we can't compare 0.1*Service Tax with 50 (250-200) hence
NOT SUFFICIENT
Answer: Option E
