To determine the price of the item after a 40% discount on its original price of $90, we follow these steps:

1. Calculate 40% of the original price:
   \[
   40\% \text{ of } 90 = 0.40 \times 90 = 36
   \]

2. Subtract the discount amount from the original price:
   \[
   90 - 36 = 54
   \]

So, the price of the item after a 40% discount is **$54**.
