Additional comment
The tax and tip are figured on the same base amount, so their percentages could be added. When you do that, you compute the total to be ...
$4.06 × (1 +7% +18%) = $4.06×1.25 = $5.075
Ordinarily, this would be rounded up to $5.08. However, the 7% tax and the 18% tip are both rounded down to the nearest cent, so the end result is $5.07, not $5.08.
