First. Find out what 25% of 500 is,then minus that from 500 five times.
It wont be worth anything because it will be $-125 in 5 years.
500-125-125-125-125-125= -125
What you need to do is find the greatest amount (1) and the lowest amount (1/4) of sap collected and the find how many times the lowest can go into the greatest. (So how many times can 1/4 go into 1). I believe that this is how you would do that.
Answer: 26%
Step-by-step explanation:
The formula to calculate the percentage markup is given as:
= Selling price - Cost / Cost price × 100
where selling price = $15750
Cost price = $12500
Percentage markup = ($15750 - $12500) / $12500 × 100
= $3250/$12500 × 100
= 26%
