I'm not sure exactly what you're trying to do (since 101+21 would give you
122, not 122.21), but I think your problem is that you're not actually
using the dictionary in your add_vat function. You're just adding 1 to
vat_rate which is 'high'. Adding an integer to a string should be an error.
Instead of "vat_rate" in "1+vat_rate" you need to do a dictionary lookup.
