Question 1040913
A first-edition comic book costs dealer $60. If the dealer wants to offer customers a discount of 10% the price marked on the tag but still wants to make a profit of 20% cost, what price should be placed on the tag?
--------------------------
Let the tag price be "p"::
after 10% discount:: 0.9p
---
0.9p = 1.2*60
----
0.9p = 72
p = $80
