Respuesta :

Answer:

53.57%

Explanation:

Data provided

Desired profit = $8

Selling and administrative expenses = $7

Product cost = $28

The computation of markup percentage on product cost is shown below:-

Markup percentage = (Desired profit + Selling and administrative expenses) ÷ Product cost × 100

= ($8 + $7) ÷ $28 × 100

= $15 ÷ $28 × 100

= $0.5357 × 100

= 53.57%

Therefore for computing the markup percentage we simply applied the above formula.
