    Hello.
    If it is said that $44 has been set as price and margin is 20% after allowing for all production costs), the target cost should be $44 * 0. 80?
    But I just checked it as formula SP= TC + 0. 2 TC
    and by substitution I have 36. 67
    What’s wrong?

    You should ask in the Ask the Tutor Forum if you want me to answer.

    Margin is the profit as a % of selling price. It is mark-up that is profit as a % of cost.
