    Below question from Kaplan Chapter 2 Example 7:

    A product has a total production cost of $60. Determine the selling price for the product if the company wants to achieve:

    (a) A 20% mark-up on total production cost
    Answer is $72
    (b) A 20% margin on total production cost
    Answer is $75

    Is there anyone can tell me why Mark-up SP is $72 and Margin SP is $75 please? I thought for some product Mark-up will give a higher price than Margin?

    Many thanks,
