Question

A buyer for a store buys a television at a wholesale price of $377.56. The store then sells the television to its customers for $589.

Find the amount of markup for the television

Find the percent of markup for the television

Answer 1

Retail minus wholesale equals markup=211.44.
Next, make an equation;
$211.44 =( x%) of ($377.56)=>$211.44/$377.56 = x%=0.56
= 56% Markup.

Answer 2

to find out the markup, simply subtract the two quantities.
589
-377.56
______
$211.44- markup

to find the percent of markup, use the answer in the first question. Divide it to the original price.

211.44 / 589= 0.358981...
move the decimal 2 places to the right so to make it a percent.

35.9%- percent of markup

Answer 3

Markup - 589-377.56 = $211.44
Percentage - 211.44/377.56 =56%

Markup = retail price - wholesale price; just how much the store added to the original price
Percentage = markup/wholesale price

Answer 4

Hello!
The markup on the television is $211.44! The markup percentage is 56%
sales price...589
wholesale...377.56
profit...........211.44
cross multiply 211.44X100/377.56 answer 56%!

Answer 5

markup is just how much the store added to the original price. So it is 589-377.56 = 211.44

as for the percent markup, 211.44/377.56 = 0.56. convert that to percent (x100) and you get 56% meaning the store charged 56% more than the original price and that is the percent markup.

Answer 6

Markup - $211.44
Percentage - 56%

Markup = retail price - wholesale price
Percentage = markup/wholesale price

Answer 7

markup = 589-377.56 = 211.44
percent of markup =100x (211.44/377.56)% = 56%
