Answer:

Mark-up =22.64%

Explanation:

Profit = Return on Investment (%) × assets\

Profit = 25% × 700,000 = 175,000

Total variable cost = (4.60+ 1.88+ 1.13+ 4.50 )× 60,000= 726600

Total cost = Total variable cost + total fixed cost

                  =  726600  + 38,700+ 7,500= 772800

Mark-up = profit/cost × 100

              = 175,000/726,600 × 100 = 22.64%

Mark-up =22.64%
