Your shift manager has put you in charge of pricing a product so that, even when some product goes unsold, the business can still turn a profit. Now, I'm not sure what business you're working for or what product you're in charge of selling, so enjoy being creative with your post and let us know. For your initial post, think of a 'perishable' item you would like to sell and where it's being sold (aka where you work!). This item could literally go bad like food, or maybe it's seasonal like a Halloween costume or Christmas decorations. Tell us about the business you're 'working' for and the product, as well as the unit cost for the item. Your manager wants to stock 600 units - show the total cost for this purchase. Your manager also wants a 40% markup based on the cost. If all 600 units were marked up 40% and sold, how much revenue would that generate? Good news. Your shift ended! When you come back to work next, you'll be finalizing the work that someone from the previous shift started. So, come back later to add your reply.
