Answer: c. 27%
The purpose of markup percentage is to find the ideal sales price of a product. For example, if the CD costs $11 each, and the selling price is $15, then the store’s markup on the unit cost is 4/11 or 37% while store’s mark up on selling price is 4/15 or 27%.
Strongly
enthusiastic characterizes the perspective most investors had of the
stock market in the first half of 1929.
On Tuesday October 29th,
1929, a stock market crash cost the market about 12 percent of its value.
Although the loss was staggering, it was only a portion of the loss that was to
occur in the following 3 years. In 1932 the DJIA reached a low of just 11% of
its high in 1929, or a loss of roughly 89%. It reached a high of 381.17 in
early September of 1929 and a low of 41.22 in July of 1932. Although we can
recognize some of the conditions that helped to fuel the stock market crash of
1929, what set it off is harder to determine.
