To determine how much you will owe your parents, you need to calculate the additional profit made and apply the 10% rule. Here's the calculation:
Additional profit = Total profit - Initial profit
Additional profit = $650 - $600
Additional profit = $50
Now, calculate 10% of the additional profit:
Owed amount = 10% of additional profit
Owed amount = 10% of $50
Owed amount = $5
Therefore, you will owe your parents $5.
If so, determine how much you will owe your parents.

Your parents heard about the success of your business and they want to help you out. Suppose they want to give you an additional $300 to put toward your business. However, there’s a catch. If you make more than $600 additional profit, you have to give them 10% of your earnings above $600. For example, if you have earned $650, then you owe 10% of $50, or $5, to your parents.
