Or it can expressed as the investor sells goods to the associate for 65,000 (selling price), the selling price includes a mark up on cost of 30%. Profit made by seller= 65,000 * 0.3/1+0.3= 15,000 My instructor told me that in order to solve this problem, I need to convert the markup into the gross profit and then multiply it by the selling price. I didn’t get the idea of converting the markup into GP. Refering to the question, that is 0.3/1+0.3. If possible, please analyse this bit. That is all I need Thanks
