How We Calculated This

15% off $40000 means you pay 85% of the original price.

$40000 × 0.85 = $34000.00

The discount amount is $40000 × 0.15 = $6000.00, which gets subtracted from the original $40000 price.

Rule of 100: For items over $100, dollar amounts sound bigger. "$6000.00 off" feels more impressive than "15% off" — even though they’re identical.
