Answer:
$2289.35
Step-by-step explanation:
We have been given that as purchasing assistant at Rosie’s Retail, you order a unique item for $1,055. You mark it to sell for 117% of the purchasing cost.
As the selling price equals to the cost of item plus markup, so to find the selling price of the item we can set an equation as:
[tex]\text{The selling price of item}=1055+(\frac{117}{100}*1055)[/tex]
[tex]\text{The selling price of item}=1055+(1.17*1055)[/tex]
[tex]\text{The selling price of item}=1055+1234.35[/tex]
[tex]\text{The selling price of item}=2289.35[/tex]
Therefore, we will sell the item for $2289.35.
