Question

A tablet computer costs 189.69. it is marked up 30%. What is the final price of the tablet computer after its marked up.

Answer 1

The initial cost is 189.69. It is marked up 30%.

By simple calculations,

Final cost of the tablet computer = Initial price + 30% of marked price

= 189.69 + (30/100 x 189.69)

This gives us the net value of 245.7. Hence the price of the computer after it's been marked up will be 245.7

Answer 2

246.60

Explanation:

Cost of tablet computer = 189.69

Mark up = 30%

Profit = 30% × 189.69

= 56.91

Final price after mark up = cost + profit

= 189.69 + 56.91

= 246.60
