180*1.445=260.1 BZor 260 BZ IF that means profit and taxes. It is not clear what 45.5% represents. Also, I'm not sure what phone has to do with anything, either.

Hi,

costing $180

If.. You intend to 'mark it up" by 45.5%, the

Selling Price would be: 180 + .455($180) = $262 (rounded to the nearest whole number)

Wish You the Best in your Studies.
