Answer:

Retail price of  each hammer is $ 13.60

Step-by-step explanation:

Given -

Whole sale cost of each hammer is   $8.50

Whole sale price means the discounted price of each hammer at the time of purchase.

Retails price is the selling price marked on each hammer which is marked up by 60 % on the whole sale price

As we know that

Marking up the price of any commodity by X % above its retails price means charging a price X% higher than the cost of the good or service

Retail price of one hammer

(Whole sale price of one + 60 % * Whole sale price of one hammer)

Substituting the given values in above equation, we get-

8.50 + \frac{60}{100} * 8.50\\= 8.50 + 0.60 * 8.50\\= 13.6

Retail price of  each hammer is $ 13.60
