In Markville, the sales tax rate is 7%. A dress originally priced at $150.00 receives a 25% discount during a store sale. Two assistants, Ann and Ben calculate the final cost differently. Ann calculates by adding the tax to the original price before applying the 25% discount. Ben discounts the price first and then adds the 7% tax. Additionally, Ann applies a special 5% service charge after all other calculations due to premium packaging. Determine the difference between the amount paid by Ann's customer and Ben's customer.
