You didn't provide the passage that gives the context of your question.  But I suspect the answer you're looking for is:

The United States is planning on dominating the world economy.

Here's context for that:

Soviet ambassador to the United States, Nikolai Novikov, accused the Americans of imperialism as the essence of their foreign policy, in a telegram he sent sent to the Soviet leadership in September, 1946.  In that telegram, sent about a year after the end of World War II, Ambassador Novikov said:  

Novikov's telegram was much longer than that, but those lines give you a glimpse of his accusations about US economic imperialism.

the amount of the purse is, $120.

tax rate =9%

first find the the total tax she paid on the amount is equal to the 9% of $120 i.e,

now,

total amount paid by shalika = $120 +$10.8 = $130.8
