Aunt Sally’s “New Orleans Most Famous Pralines” sells pralines costing $1.10 each to make. If Aunt Sally’s wants a 35% markup based on selling price and produces 45 pralines with an anticipated 15% spoilage, what should each praline be sold for?

Answer 1

lose means cost each is increased.
cost each after losses: 1.10(1.15)=1.27 each
with 35 precent markup,then the price should be 1.25*1.35=1.69 each
