Answer:
$4.48
Explanation:
If Shannon needs to make a 12% markup based on cost, to obtain her minimum selling price to her distributor Miller of Denton, simply multiply the production cost per unit by 100% plus the desired markup.
If it costs her $4.00 to produce a six pack, her selling price should be:
She should charge $4.48 per six pack.

USDA actually has several stickers/labels/stamps that could have different meanings. However, the sticker most likely indicates that the chicken has passed for inspection while the grading stamp means that the poultry processor also requested to have the quality of the chicken evaluated and graded.
The USDA has separate programs for the inspection and for the grading of meet. The former is mandatory and guarantees the wholesomeness of the meat. This means that the animal from which the meat was taken from is not diseased and that the meat is clean and fit for human consumption. Inspection programs are paid for by public funds.
However, USDA also has a grading program, which is paid for by the meat processors. The grading program checks and classifies the meat according to its quality (e.g. flavor, juiciness, and tenderness). Poultry with a Grade A poultry for example is one which does not have "defects" such as feathers, discoloration and bruising.
