Answer:

It is 33 percent (C)

Step-by-step explanation:

Total cost = $50 + $10 = $60

Using 33% mark-up on total cost,

Selling Price = 133/100 * $60

=$79.8

≅ $80

Hence, expected profit margin = $80- $60

=$20

Agreed mark-up is applied on the estimated total cost of the product to determine its selling price and then its profit.
