£5.49/1.03*1.2 = £6.40
£4.31/1.03*1.2 = £5.02
£3.49/1.03*1.2 = $4.07
(rounding to nearest penny)
However, publishers might adjust the prices themselves as well.
And if the EU ever decides to apply the same VAT rates to ebooks at to paper books, the UK prices will go down a lot, since we have 0% VAT on paper books.
tl;dr: No-one knows. It depends on too many things.
