A furniture store marks up items 20% (based on cost).  If the furniture store buys a couch for $350, what will
952600
Trick Question... If a furniture store is only marking up products 20% it'll probably go out of business.  Therefore the correct answer is the furniture store will charge about $799, but will tell employees, customers they paid $720.\n\nThis is really simple math.  If you have any more questions please let me know.

The manager had only returned $3. He kept $2. But, orginially he still had $25 because $30 - $5 is $25. $25+$3+$2 is $30, so there was no missing $1

If the total cost of an item is X * 1.06, then 9.49 DIVIDED BY 1.06 will give you the original price.  It was $8.95\n\nProof:  $8.95 * 6% = $0.54; $8.95 + $.54 = $9.49

Take the original/wholesale price, and divide it by .35\nThis will equal your selling price. (with 65% markup)

Nothing is lost. Their contribution is 47$ (23.5 $ each). This sum includes the 2$ for the cab, so the 2$ should not be added again to get the 49 sum.\n\n25$   25$\n---------\n1.5   1.5.......back\n1     1.........cab\n22.5  22.5......pen cost\n---------\n25$   25$\n\n=>Each paid 23.5$, the shop received 45 (22.5 from each), and the cab received 2$(1 from each).

If you are looking for a receipt to give to the person donating the furniture, your charities letterhead with a dated acknowledment and a description of what they donated would suffice.  The donor assigns the value based on the FMV of the furniture.  As long as they are not planning on taking over a $5,000 deduction no appraisal would need to be done.

Different things are assigned a different colored tag to indicate whats the sale percentage you should get. \nEg., Green = 10% off\n        Blue = 50% off\n        Yellow = 90% off\n        Red = 30% off

You really wouldnt have a case.  Even though the manager didnt explain to you that there was a restocking fee, normally when you purchase something that big, they charge a 15% re-stocking fee.  Either because they will loose money from a future sale or because they have to pay overtime to someone who have to put it back.  Check the papers you signed for the furniture.  It should state in there that there is a 15% re-stocking fee for returned items.  If not, then you will have a case.

Divide the difference between the two prices by the original price (59.53 divided by 398.53) and then multiply that answer by 100.  In this case, the discount is a little under 15%.

I think the simplest way to solve this is to move the decimal place over one to the left.   If for example they wanted 1% you would move it over two to the left.  If they wanted .01% three to the left.  If they wanted .001% four to the left.  You get the point. \n\nSo 10%= $2500

So, let's say the cost of the pizza was 30 quid.  Three mates each payed 10 quid (10*3 = 30).\n\nPizza man found he overcharged by 5 quid (cost should be 25).  He returns 3 (one to each mate) and keeps 2 (3+2 = 5).\n\nThat means the mates payed 9 quid each (10-1 = 9) and 27 total (9*3 = 27).  Add the 2 the pizza man kept and you have 29.  You now have a pound missing.\n\nWrong.  You don't add it to 27, you subtract it from 27.\n\nLook at it this way.  The mates paid 30.  Each got 1 back, so the pizza cost 27 (30-3 = 27).  The delivery guy kept 2 so the total is 25 (27-2 = 25).\n\nNo pound missing.

Lets take a look at the cost of a financed computer and a computer paid for with cash.\n\nA $950 computer paid for with a credit card @ 24% interest would cost you almost $1450 with annual rates and fees. \n\nNow, you could just save up $800 cash and walk into Joe's Computer Store and stand there counting the hundreds saying "I WANT A BARGAIN." You know what, you'll get that bargain. So, you just got a $950 computer for $800.\n\nAlso, did you know that the $500 you would save in interest on that computer would amount to $46,525.49 if you put it in a 40yr mutual fund?\n\nIs a $1450 computer worth $46,525.49?

The price  you pay for something in the store (ie after the store marks up the price 50% then wants you to pay for it)

I'd cancel. that's not reasonable especially before the holiday.\n but that's me.\ndid they tell you that before you paid? what did you sign did it say 7-8 weeks?\nusually 4-6 is standard.\n\nwhy don't you buy local? or go to a poor part of town and support their economy have IT the same or next day.\nthere are discount furniture places everywhere.

Uhm you are vague by saying "at least $30". Hence, it is impossible to figure this out. You did not say "exactly $30".

B is the answer.  If they pay before interest kicks in, no cost other than the goods themselves are involved. "0" percent APR.

That is up to the seller. Usually they subtract the cost from the marked price and divide that number by the cost to get a margin. That says what they want to mark. But many times they are stuck because of competition and can't charge more than their competitors. Sometimes it is an end of season clearance and they will mark a price that will (hopefully) cover their costs.Other times they mark a loss-leader price that is intended to get you into the store to buy something very cheap and hopefully stay and buy other items that are not low-priced.
