Kabul’s bookshop marks up all books by 40 percent of their cost. The overhead rate is 16 percent of the selling price. What is t

morpeh [17]

Answer:

The net profit rate on the book is 5.41

Step-by-step explanation:

Given as :

The marks up percentage of book = m = 40%

The overhead rate is 16% of selling price

The cost price of book = c.p = $18.10

Let The profit = $p

Let The selling price = s.p

<u>Now, According to question</u>

mark up percentage = $\dfrac{s.p - c.p}{c.p}$

I.e 40% = $\dfrac{s.p - 18.10}{18.10}$

Or, $\dfrac{40}{100}$ + 1 = $\dfrac{s.p}{18.10}$

Or, $\dfrac{140}{100}$ = $\dfrac{s.p}{18.10}$

Or, s. p = $\dfrac{140\times 18.10}{100}$

∴ s.p = $25.34

So, selling price of book = s.p = $25.34

Now, The overhead percentage = 16%

i.e overhead rate = $\dfrac{\textrm estimated cost}{\textrm estimated total base unit}$

Or, estimated cost = 16% × 25.34

I,e estimated cost = 0.16 × 25.34

∴ estimated cost = $4.05

Now,

Profit = selling price of book - estimated book cost

I.e p = $25.34 - $4.05

∴ p = $21.29

So, The profit rate% = $\dfrac{\textrm profit}{\textrm estimated cost}$

I.e The profit rate% = $\dfrac{21.29}{4.05}$

∴ profit rate %= 5.41

So, The profit rate = p = 5.41

Hence, The net profit rate on the book is 5.41 Answer

First, change the two mixed numbers in the expression into an improper fraction: 25/6 + 5/3.
Then, find the Lowest Common Denominator of both fractions, which is 6, and set both denominators equal to that. Remember, whatever you do on one side you must do to the other: 25/6 + 10/6
Add the two together: 25/6 +10/6 = 35/6.
To make it a mixed number again, find how many times 6 goes into 35, which is 5 times, with a remainder of 5. Your answer is 5 5/6

A company spends 13% of its month budget on rent which total $2600 which proportion can be used to calculate the company’s total

yaroslaw [1]

Answer:

20,000

Step-by-step explanation:

We can create a proportion to find the total budget. A proportion is an equation where two ratios are set equal to each other. We create two fractions using the budget and percents.

$\frac{13}{100} =\frac{2600}{x}$
