Answer:

$405.33

Explanation:

I assume you are looking for the final sale price including the markup and tax.

original cost: $269.95

To add the markup of 43%, we multiply the cost by 1.43. To add the tax of 5%, we multiply by 1.05.

final sale price = 1.05 × 1.43 × $269.95

final sale price = $405.33
