You can put this solution on YOUR website!
Sure!
\n" ); document.write( "If $14.56 is 30% markup of the wholesale cost, then the cost should be $14.56*0.70 = $10.192
\n" ); document.write( "why? vice versa, you markup $10.192 by 30 points (or %) = $10.192/0.70=$14.56
\n" ); document.write( "Thank you,
