c 20520,000
d 21320,000ans is d 21320,000
rev 27000 +commission 400 (4000*10/100)- 4000( agent collection) after this what is to be done i am stuck could you help and explain
thank you in advance sir
800,000 x 2 = $1,600,000
Add 30% mark up
$1,600,000 + $480,000 = $2,080,000
So, $27,000,000 – $4,000,000 + $400,000 – $2,080,000 = $21,320,000
Ok now?
You’ve said it yourself! Mark up is on cost and the question is clear about this when the question actually states “the COST of providing service and support is estimated at $800,000 pa”
Well, if the cost is that much and mark up is 30%, how much is included in the figure of $8,000,000 with reference to service and support?
$8,000,000 x 2 x 30%
Follow my figures as you re-read the question and I think (hope) that you’ll begin to see the logic of the calculation
Ok?
