Given: Cost = $1,150, Markup = 12%
Markup as a Decimal: 12% = 0.12
Formula:
Selling Price = Cost * (1 + Markup as a Decimal)
Selling Price = $1,150 * (1 + 0.12)
Selling Price = $1,150 * 1.12
Selling Price = $1,288
Notes:
Markup Amount = Selling Price – Cost = $1,288 – $1,150 = $138
Profit = Markup Amount = $138
Profit Margin =
Markup as a Decimal: 12% = 0.12
Formula:
Selling Price = Cost * (1 + Markup as a Decimal)
Selling Price = $1,150 * (1 + 0.12)
Selling Price = $1,150 * 1.12
Selling Price = $1,288
Notes:
Markup Amount = Selling Price – Cost = $1,288 – $1,150 = $138
Profit = Markup Amount = $138
Profit Margin =
Profit/
Selling Price
=
$138/
$1,288
= 0.1071 = 10.71%
