A good is bought wholesale for $50.00

The good is sold for $75.00

What is the markup rate?

Calculate Markup Amount:

Markup Amount = Final Price - Original Price

Markup Amount = $75.00 - $50.00

Markup Amount = $25.00

Calculate Markup Rate:

Let us define our rate as (x)

Markup Amount = Original Price(x)

Divide each side by Original Price to isolate x:

x =	Markup Amount
	Original Price

Plug in our numbers and solve:

x =	$25.00
	$50.00

x = 0.5

Convert to Percentage:

Markup Percentage = 100 x 0.5 = 50%

Final Answer

Markup Percentage = 100 x 0.5 = 50%

What is the Answer?

Markup Percentage = 100 x 0.5 = 50%
