Question 10: Each tablet in a bottle of 30 costs the pharmacy $4.60. The pharmacy has additional costs including supplies and shipping of $1.40 per pill. If a 12% profit is desired, how much would the pharmacy charge for entire bottle?

Respuesta :

The pharmacy must charge for $201.6 for the entire bottle.

Profit is the financial gain to the seller after selling some commodity

Revenue is the total sale of the seller after selling some commodity

Expenses is the expenditure to the seller before selling the commodity

Profit = Revenue - Expenses

Cost of the tablet = $4.60

Total cost of the bottle=$4.60x30

                                       =$138

Additional cost=$1.40 x 30

                          = $42

Total expenses=$180

Profit %=125

Revenue= $180 x (1+12/100)

              =$180 x (112/100)

               =$201.6

Therefore, The pharmacy must charge for $201.6 for the entire bottle for a profit of 12%
