QUESTION 4
A men's shop with an initial markup of 59% had markdowns of 10%, employee discounts of 3%, and
shortages of 2%. What was the maintained markup percentage?
QUESTION 5
The T-shirt department buyer determined that the department's initial markup should be 59%. The buyer
also wanted to attain a maintained markup of 52.85%. Under this plan, what retail reductions (in
percentages) would be allowed?
QUESTION 6
A separates buyer-who operates on a 51% total markup-needs 300 sweaters to retail at $60 each and
280 top to retail at $32 each. If this buyer pays $15 for each top, how much can the buyer spend on each
sweater, without deviating from the target total markup percentage?
