A café’s food subtotal is \(\$160\) before service charge and GST. A customer can use either a \(\$24\) voucher that reduces the food subtotal before charges, or a \(\$28\) rebate paid after the full bill has been calculated. The café adds a 10% service charge to the food subtotal after any voucher discount, then 9% GST on the service-inclusive amount. Which offer leaves the lower final cost, and by how much? Round each final cost to the nearest cent before comparing.
