Given: Cost = $120, Markup = 25%
Markup as a Decimal: 25% = 0.25
Formula:
Selling Price = Cost * (1 + Markup as a Decimal)
Selling Price = $120 * (1 + 0.25)
Selling Price = $120 * 1.25
Selling Price = $150
Notes:
Markup Amount = Selling Price – Cost = $150 – $120 = $30
Profit = Markup Amount = $30
Profit Margin =
Markup as a Decimal: 25% = 0.25
Formula:
Selling Price = Cost * (1 + Markup as a Decimal)
Selling Price = $120 * (1 + 0.25)
Selling Price = $120 * 1.25
Selling Price = $150
Notes:
Markup Amount = Selling Price – Cost = $150 – $120 = $30
Profit = Markup Amount = $30
Profit Margin =
Profit/
Selling Price
=
$30/
$150
= 0.2 = 20%
