MY STORE bought sweaters at a wholesale price of $12 and sold them for $34.99. Ron says the markup is $46.99 but you say he is wrong. Show Ron how to find the markup amount.

Retail price= (wholesale price x markup %) + wholesale
Markup %= (retail - wholesale) x 100/wholesale
Discount= (OG price x discount %)
Sale price= OG price - discount
Discount %= (OG price - sale price) x 100/OG price

Answer:

Markup %= (retail - wholesale) x 100/wholesale

Explanation:

Mark up is the difference between the selling price and the buying price. It represents profits that a business makes or desires to make from the sale of an item.

Mark-up is expressed as a percentage of the buying price. For my store, profits will be calculated by getting the difference between the wholesale price( buying price) and the selling price( retail price).

Mark will be = retail price- wholesale price    x 100

                                wholesale price.
