Cost/Selling price/Markup and Cost/Selling

price/Margin calculations

The Calc application provides a useful function for making markup and margin calculations, based on figures that you supply via the keyboard. The way it works is simple: you enter two of the values that you already know for either the cost, selling price or markup/margin, and the calculator works out and displays the missing value. For example, if you enter the cost and the selling price, it will tell you the percentage markup or margin based on those two values. If you enter the selling price and the markup or margin, it will tell you the cost.

1.Press CALC several times until the COST/S.PRICE/ MARKUP display or the COST/S.PRICE/MARGIN display appears, as required.
