Pre-Test
a. MU = E + P
= 0.30 x 10 + 0.20 x 10
=3+2
= P5.00
The mark-up price for each hair accessory is P5.00.
b. S = C + MU
= 10 + P5.00
= P15.00
Aling Maria should sell each hair accessory at P15.00.
Practice Task 1
100% - 20% = 80% (Cost of polo is 80% of the selling price.)
C = 0.80S
150 = 0.80S
S = 150/.80
= P187.50
Mr. Moreno sells the polo at P187.50.
MU = S C
MU = 187.50 150
MU = P37.50
The mark-up on the polo is P37.50
Practice Task 2
a. 100% - 55% = 45% (the sale price is 45% of the selling price.)
SP = 0.45 x S
= 0.45 x 5,000
= P2,250
The sale price of the Nike sneaker is P2,250
b. CTOTAL = C + E
= 3,540 + 0.12 x 5,000
= P4,140
P = SP CTOTAL
= 2,250 4,140
= P1,890 (loss)
The loss made on the sale was P1,890.

V. Learning Activities:
MU = 0.25 x 180
Lesson 1
= P45.00
Selling price before the increase:
S = C + MU
= 180 + 45.00
Learning Situation 1: = P225.00
Selling price after increase:
-up based PS = P225.00 + P5.00
on cost is 25%. Find the selling price and the mark-up. = P230.00
Combined Rate of Mark-up and Mark-on
Solution: = 45 + 5 = 0.2777 = 27.78%
MU = 0.25 x 35 180
= P8.75 27.78% - 25% = 2.78%
S = 35 + 8.75
= P43.75 The mark-up is increased by 2.78% by the additional mark-on of
-up of P5.00 by Mang Gorio.
P8.75.
