    Dear John,

    Selling price is fixed at the cost of inventory plus 50%.
    It is calculated as cost of sale * 100/150.

    My question is that why we use 150 instead of 50.

    First of all, it is not calculated as cost of sale x 100/150 !!
    (it is cost of sale x 150/100)

    Suppose you had something that cost $100. Then selling price is $100 + (50% x 100), which equals $150.

    So….for every 100 cost of sale, the selling price is 150.
