Detailed explanation-1: -When the cost is $5.00 you add 0.30 × $5.00 = $1.50 to obtain a selling price of $5.00 + $1.50 = $6.50. This is what I would call a markup of 30%. 0.70 × (selling price) = $5.00.
Detailed explanation-2: -Markup is the difference between a product’s selling price and cost as a percentage of the cost. For example, if a product sells for $125 and costs $100, the additional price increase is ($125 – $100) / $100) x 100 = 25%.
Detailed explanation-3: -For example, with a rate of 40% and a cost of $100, the markup price is simply $100 + $100 + 40% = $100 + $100 * 0.4 = $100 + $40 = $140 which is the price with markup included.
Detailed explanation-4: -Simply take the sales price minus the unit cost, and divide that number by the unit cost. Then, multiply by 100 to determine the markup percentage. For example, if your product costs $50 to make and the selling price is $75, then the markup percentage would be 50%: ( $75 – $50) / $50 = .50 x 100 = 50%.
