The sales tax rate in Berdel City is 8%. During a special store promotion, the price of a designer bag is discounted at 25% from its $120.00 price tag. Two clerks, Matt and Sara, calculate the bill independently. Matt charges $120.00, adds 8% sales tax, then applies a 25% discount to this total. Sara charges $120.00, subtracts 25% for the discount first, then adds 8% sales tax on the discounted price. Calculate the difference between Matt's total and Sara's total.
