It's probably 33 1/3 percent. Overhead - meaning rent, utilities & wages for employees takes a third. Replacing the items you sold takes a third. Your profit should also take a third.

Is 560 percent correct?

560%=5.6=560/100 560 percent might be correct. If a company made £10 profit in 2008 and £9 profit in 2009, the 2009 profit would be 90% of the profit in 2008. If the same company made £9 profit again in 2010, the 2010 profit would be 100% of the profit in 2009 (100% means exactly the same amount). If the same company made £50.40 profit in 2011, the 2011 profit would be 560% of the profit in 2010 because £50.40 is 5.6 times as much as £9.

If on an item a shop gives 25 percent discount. they earn 25 percent profit If they now give 10 percent discount then what is the profit percentage?

If a shop gives a 10 percent discount, the profit percentage will be less than 25 percent, as the discount reduces the overall selling price of the item. The actual profit percentage would depend on the cost price and the new selling price after the discount is applied.


How do you calculate cost price if we know the selling price and profit percent?

What I do is organize it as follows... Cost Price = 100% Selling Price = 100% + profit percent Then you can fill in the variables and cross multiply, for example if you know the selling price is $27 and the profit percent is 10% then you can fill it in accordingly... Cost Price = 100% $27 = 100 + 10 l l \/ Cost Price = 100% $27 = 110% Then you do ($27 x 100%) / 110 to get $24.55. That means that the Cost price is $24.55
